To keep it short, there are homes that are right across from the units that looked a bit odd.

My PM just filled both units with traditional long-term tenants.

i'm a long distance investor with 13 units in chicago. i love the bp real estate podcast, 2nd is the wiire podcast, 3rd would be the bp real estate rookie podcast. for books i've pretty much stuck with the bp books also. 

yeah as title. i have a mortgage on my own house. recently a 4plex on fb caught my eye. theyre listing for 300k, new construction, on i think 1/2 acre or 1 acre mostly seems a big dirt parking lot in front. 1800sq ft. they claim the units rent for 1050. obviously these are small units 1 bed 1 bath, doing the math 1800/4 is 450 sq ft per unit. they look nice, being new construction, albeit spartan inside, metal building, concrete floors, washer dryer hookup. semi rural Oklahoma but about 80-100 miles from dfw. they also say all units are under 6 month lease (it seems to be friends of theirs, i'm guessing, as they mentioned it was full "despite not even listing it yet"?)

I usually ask the purpose of renting my unit.  

If the units are very close to one another, I’d offer to move it for them for like, a $75-$100 fee or something.

My hope is to buy in B- to A- area, prefer a small 2-4 unit (they don't seem to be very easy to find).

Investment Info:Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment.

You don't want to start a relationship to learn about storage units and then find out they only invest in single-family homes.3.

Maybe look at 2-4 units atleast here even in the trendy nice parts of chicago 2-4 units still cashflow positive.
