Turning FourPlex into Duplex?

[Vincent Belcastro]

I have taken the leap and made a solid offer on my first flip (on my own). It is designed as a fourplex but has the designs drawn to turn into a large duplex. All rents being equal, is there any benefit to turning the 4-plex into a duplex? Specifically for future resale?

4 approx 800sq ft units to 2 1600sq ft units

Thank you for your insight

@Vincent Belcastro I can't think of an instance where two 1600 sq. ft apartments is better than four 800 footers; but I am always willing to learn. Generally 4 doors will bring in more revenue and mitigate risk.
