Single Family or Fourplex

[Shital Thakkar]

Hi,

Here is my scenario...

I moved from one state to another, my primary home in first state is on rent (My first exposure as a landloard). Now i like to increase my portfolio. I am thinking of following scenarios...

Scenario 1:
Single family investment properties in good neoghbourhood in the range of ~150K and manage myself.

Scenario 2:
Fourplex investment (~200K) with property manager.

I am planning to purchase multiple properties in future (one at a time...) and I like to know which path is better...!!

I really apprceiate your advice.

Thanks,
