Now, with my move to Kansas imminent, I've decided to study for my real estate license and take my gains from selling my primary home (took me 2 days to get a fullprice+ offer without a realtor) and invest into a multifamily housing unit.

You could also make the case to the seller that their home is unique and that you would like a longer than usual study period so that you can bring them the best possible price. 

I'd personally like to study up before meeting and conversing with others.Thanks again!

First read, study, memorise your state landlord tenant regulations.

Realistically the sky is the limit, you really just have to study up and see what you think would work best for you individually and in your market.

Millennia ago I moved overseas and stupidly closed all my credit cards and accounts so that later, 3.5 years ago actually, when I bought an investment property back in the US, I had zero credit history.I just discovered today that my lender has not been reporting to any of the 3 credit reporting agencies for the duration of that loan which I have carefully paid on time, every time.  

Side note, where did you find this property and how did you discover it?

Start reading and studying!

@Brian Twiggi made a similiar trip in July and discovered Memphis suburbs.

Most of them are questions that I discovered on my way to finding the PM company that I use and love.
