It's how we feed our families.

How do I go about looking for multi family homes in this expensive climate? 

These properties are owned together with Lavatube Capital,a husband-and-wife team touting high-growth low risk returns and Lane Kawaoka, a real estate podcaster.Proudliving is a New Jersey based “owner and manager of real estate” which like other entities mentioned abovetakes funds from accredited retail investors to invest in the multi-family area.

Im new to investing and are looking to understand what the type of loans are available to buy rental property (single, multi family home etc). 

I am looking to diversify my exposure to other cities and I've got a tenant occupied single family home on the east side, on Center St near N Walter St intersection. 10 min bicycle ride to the Alamo.

i don't have an answer for you but just wanted to say to check with the building/zoning/permitting dept to even ensure you can convert this property to a legal 2-family!

If this was my first chance at making it big on small SFR's or mid size multi family I would take what I say to heart.  

I dont think the terms allow me to post a link but here are some basics.Has been occupied avg of 17 days per month since Sept.managed by a top tier company and has 4.8 star avg reviews.Also would be a good family home (large private lot, fenced yard, hot tub).It has the benefit of being near Austin downtown, but NOT in Austin city limits (9 miles to city center), so lower taxes and no STR rules (default to Travis County rules).I have read the forum posts for similar situations, however every market is different. 

Id first write down what your goals are and how much time you realistically have to spend on REI (ie if you work a full time job/have a family/etc flipping or STRs may be tougher than renting a LTR).

You can find many single family homes with early opportunities to cash flow and appreciate at the same time.
