I think house-hacking a small multi-family (2-4 units) is the best way to get started. 

I believe Im on the right track of what you’re saying just clarifying.Nate

Where I have heard people have some reservations about saying they are the owner is when they bought a multi-family property that they live in one of the units.

I plan to get into multifamily investing by starting out with house hacking and a couple 2-4 units in order to build a track record.

By picking a single strategy (ex. small multi-family, single family, apartments, self-storage, mobile homes, etc.) you can concentrate your time and resources on mastering that strategy to maximize the ROI you can get.

To give you more detail I own two properties one of them is a condo and the other is a multi-family.

For multi family in Canada is their a house age range you would not touch or has a lot of headaches?

I’m working on a 300 unit multi-family project which is new construction.

Hello,So I was wondering, I noticed that there are a lot of mulit families built in the 1880s - 1920s and I have not seen any new constructions for a multi family property in Rhode Island.

I have multis in all of the cities that you mentioned and manage a number of others in those areas as well.
