think I over researched . and now i'm confused .

[Frank Durham]

are you better off when your new and green to getting duplexes and 3-4 bed units? or if you can swing in financially are you better off buying a complex? or say 16 - 24 units in a building? 

My theory is basically . One roof.. instead of 16 roofs.. or 8 roofs (Duplex).. repairs would be less??  etc. 

Everyone says . noobies should start out with 1 or 2 small properties etc.. 

I hate to waste time and money .. and if it's best to get a big complex or something full of units, cabins, condo's etc.. am I best off if I can swing it financially and just pay cash for a building full of units? if if at 1st i'm over my head..   I have friends who are contractors etc.. so I know I can call electricians, plumbers etc.. if need be. 

thanks
