Multi-family versus business tenants

I focus on multifamily property because I am worried about vacancy with business tenants on commercial.

Any thoughts and experiences welcome!

If location and area is strong then plenty of business tenant demand to refill the space.

I personally love commercial retail and dealing with business owners. They tend to keep the space clean for the consumers and you usually have landlord friendly tenant laws.

I have been down the multifamily route before and it is a more intensive asset to manage and a lot more BS with residential tenants and all of their excuses.

I didn't like it but I do not like regular residential SFR either. At 44 years of age I don't have time to listen to the BS anymore. I like more passive money with less headaches.
