I think that's a great strategy, as there doesn't seem to be a lot of small multis to compete with in this region.  

My ultimate goal is to get into multi-family once I get my feet wet. 

I currently dealt with single families and a duplex, I’m trying to learn more about  multi families, so any information you can add would be appreciated.

I've been looking at the Las Vegas market for SFH and multi-family buy and hold. 

No one likes surprise liens.This will also help you determine if a college town multi-uit is zoned properly like @Chris Seveney mentioned

I was looking at Fannie Mae small multi-family loan.

We’re looking to put 3.5% down on a multi-family to house hack.

I am strongly consideration going the route of purchasing distressed and/or vacant properties (commercial, factory, warehouse, multi-family, etc.) for development in an effort to restore neighborhoods. 

I’m in the early stages of putting a team together with the goal of aquiring multi family units in central Iowa.

@Peter Hagemann What are the interest rates on the two multi units?
