Sounds odd but for the millennial’s, it’s perfect.

The millennial comment was more about the way you are coming across in the forum rather than your specific age.  

Most people don't like to rent to young millennials.

It’s typical millennial entitlement.

I talk to plenty of millennials who already have 5+ properties, pretty impressive and will be retiring a lot earlier than most.

In fact, it would seem very unlikely since the word was just a couple years ago that millennials are scared of buying homes because of 2008.By any tangible measurement compared to other economies, our housing prices are very cheap. 

Not sure what part of NY you are in but I have purchased properties in the Buffalo area for low prices it’s been some years but the area in general is still pretty low priced .Buffalo seems to come up on those lists of “where millennials are moving “ these days .

But within those boundaries, my people can grow wings and raise outstanding young people.Given that background, along with my being childless, and of course my extensive readings in personal finance, I am very curious to see what people's game plans are with their own children in the real estate tribe.I should add, in conclusion, that overall, I think Americans raised in the Millennial and Gen Z cohorts are more impressive than any since the Greatest Generation.

Oregon is seeing significant in-migration from a younger population and those people are here to stay for the long-term (think about all of the Portland millennials who are now living in apartments who will want that white-picket fence single-family home one day).In my opinion, what @AndrewJurinka said above is correct in that duplexes and multi-units are better cash-flowing deals than single-family homes.
