However, there are also some downsides to consider before making this type of purchase. One thing to think about is that you may be limited in terms of the areas where you can buy a multi-family home. Another downside is the increased complexity when it comes to taxes.

But there are also benefits to owning a multi-family unit – for example, you’ll always be close by so you can check on the condition frequently.

If you’re thinking of buying a multi-family home, it’s important to work with a real estate agent who can help you determine the right price and location for your needs. And remember, you’ll still need to have good credit and a low debt-to-income ratio to qualify for a loan.

If you’re considering investing in a multi-family home, there are both pros and cons to think about. But with the help of a real estate agent, you can find the perfect property that meets your needs – and start generating income from your investment!
