Cash flow vs appreciation

Which is better? A fourplex for $350k or 3 duplexes for $110-$120k each? The fourplex is in a better location and would appreciate much more than the duplexes. The duplexes give me more doors and more cash flow. I currently have 2 duplexes.

I have struggled with this exact question in the past.  I personally would choose the fourplex because I have found that the less roofs and all the things that come with them the better off you will be.  This is why I have moved into even larger multifamily apartment buildings and started helping people invest into syndications.
