Four plex vs duplex

Jeremy Beathley

Posted

I do have 2 properties now but they were houses I bought to live in and keep when I was ready to move on.

So I want to use my 2nd FHA mortgage on my first investment property bought as a investment property.

I'm focused on finding a four plex but pickings are slim in the greater Baton Rouge area.

I'm seeing a few duplexes sneaking on the market.

Do I switch strategies or hold fast stay true to my four plex plan? My goal is cash flow. My target is 10-12 more doors in 2 years.

You have to be flexible in your market.  Take the best deal / cash flow, don't worry how it comes (2 or 4 doors).  Sometimes your market will choose your path for you.

Good Luck!
