I’m interested to invest in the area, my husband and I are exploring all different options! 

You will meet people from different walks of life that will give you different perspectives on real estate investing.

“Multifamily” in real estate typically starts at 5 units or more, where 2-4 Unit properties, even with multiple units, is typically in another box.5-10 Units: If the properties you are looking at are more than four units, then the options are likely going to be a bit different.

I used to have 15+ units here, have been selling them off and going into a different niche.

If this is a commercial property then that is a different story.

Hey Tramon, I'm not a truck driver, but i've worked with investors from all different industries.

Hi Heather, Your lending options can vary greatly depending on what type of property you are looking at. 1-4 units, 5-10, and beyond will have different types of lenders and more importantly different loan options. 1-4 you will have the options of FHA/local banks/conventional.
