My lovey lady and I are moving out there in March and will be looking to purchase a multi-family once we do.

If a disqualified party to your IRA is directly or indirectly involved in the transaction, then you would not want to do this.

Finding SFH is pretty simple; however, I can't find a good resource for multi units (2-4 units).  

Hi all, I am currently looking into multi-families with my brother in the Milwaukee market.

@Andrew BeaverWe decided on Bradford because we would be living in one of the units, my fiancee has particular tastes, so when researching areas, I needed the town/city to have a good number of multi's, an atmosphere I would want to participate in, and a good cost of house vs potential rent ratio.The other factor to consider, was that the city had to be between my job and my fiancee's. 

Hi ,I'm about a year away from being able to purchase the first of several multi-family units.

I am very familiar with the area and manage several multi-family units in that general area.Thanks! 

The company I work for manages approx. 100 sfr and small multi-units in the Whittier area (mostly along the 605), and expenses for our units (including common area maintenance, regular maintenance, turnovers, and cap ex) have historically averaged around 40% of rental income.

They might do this themselves if self managed, but even large 3rd party management companies will change their accounting practices in preparation for a sale if the owner so desires.  

Long term goal is to buy and hold multi-family.
