Multi-family in Chandler AZ

[Tre Tyler]

Im a new investor looking to make my first investment purchase and take advantage of the house hacking method. Ive been looking in my home town of Seattle but am also intrigued by the Phoenix market. As I've been looking in Chandler and Gilbert it doesn't look like there are any current duplexes/triplexes available (or even built). Im wondering what this means for a market that doesn't seem to have these options.

Hey Tre I'd call a real estate agent in the area to get MLS listings to make sure. If there are none built then it's probably a zoning issue. Some municipalities don't want multifamily units because they attract renters or cause too much density with the additional units. You'd have to find a house to rent by the room or try another zip code. Good luck.
