Sitting on a Gold Mine

I am looking at getting into real estate. I have a VA that I can use for my first purchase. I plan to live in one of the units and pay rent to myself to do a refinance sooner than later. I will not have to pay the finance fee either. The problem that I am running into is finding property. I would like to start with a quadraplex as it will provide the largest amount of cash flow. However, there are only duplexes in my area. The housing market here is insane. Houses are staying listed for days not even weeks. Should I look into building? Wanting to make sure that my first property is a least a base hit.
