I am looking to getting into Rental Properties for Single Family homes.

I currently work in Market Research, and am interested in investing in single family/small multi-family (2-4 unit) rentals in the area (close enough that I can hopefully manage them myself).

I want to offer on a duplex, as my first investment property, and the city has it zoned as single family, although it is registered as a duplex and a rental and I can continue to rent it as a duplex.

Starting off with single family houses is great, but you'll want to 1031 exchange them into larger and larger properties.  

I'm primarily interested in investing in single family homes, to buy and hold, out of state. 

I can't speak for every bank here but your "Loan to Value" will normally be for 75% of the ARV on single family and 70% on 2-4 unit properties. 

I'll take $300 over $7K every single time.
