I appreciate each and every single one of you that provides input, it truly does mean the world to me. 

It is a single family home.

Ideally single family homes.

I have been purchasing single family homes over the past few years as rental properties. 

Two parcels I own are sized/zoned for single family and one I own is sized/zoned for multi. 

If it is a single family home, I would just wait until it is vacant to even list it.

There are charity organizations that you may be able to apply to in order to get assistance on rent, and we would be happy to accept rent from such an organization (insert charity names and contact info if you know of any, in my area there are several grant programs that help single women specifically).

After taking the 6-12 months to learn about real estate investing I would refine my investing parameters... for example, do you want to invest in single family homes?

The wealth of knowledge I’ve gain from them and the forums is immense, and yesterday I made the leap and contacted the realtors on a couple local properties (Clovis, NM) that caught my eye (both single and multi-family).

Memphis' strong suit is in single family homes and not so much on small multi family properties.
