New to Investment Real Estate: Multi Family v Single Family
Hello!
I'm interested in getting into the beginning stages of investment real estate - either multi family or single family - and trying to gain a better understanding of both options.
Currently, I live in NYC, so this would ideally be for out of the city and in more affordable / growing cities.
Looking to get involved with events and talks happening around the city that speak to these investment ideas for millennials.

I have both but prefer single families. I am able to get high rents, taxes are lower, I pass on water/lawn/snow to the tenants so my expenses are lower and I find my tenants stay longer. I have actually been selling off my multi and picking up more singles because my numbers on them are so much better.
