Subbu, The quantity of commercial multifamily listed on the MLS will be very small.

Increasing job quality and quantity - You need new employers setting up operations.Investor friendly - Check for rent control (os similar restrictions) and the actual cost and time to evict.Property cost - There is a tendency for new investors to choose locations with very inexpensive properties.

The neighborhoods are not war zones but just really tiny towns.🏠 1 - About $3000 with double closing cost total purchase of 5500894sqf -- 2 bed 1 ba on about 1-2 acres of land (will have to do a survey)Will need about 20k worth of workCan rent "if it does" for about 550-650I would give out more comps buy it's a very small farmer town of about 1300 people so none really exist.🏠 2 -About $10000 similar closing costs about 2000.1168sqft -- 3 bed 1 ba on about 1/2 acre along with a large shed that could be a mother in law suite.The house has been completed gutted and ready to build a new.

Bought 4r/2c mixed use bld on MLS in tiny rural town using no cash for $200k 12/2018.

WL may work in a tiny percentage of people and situations, but most of the time it heavily favors the insurance company....not you

CORRECT, divorce and death makes up a very tiny volume of total home sale listings. 

His rentals are now a reliable source of steady and recurring income (which is invaluable for a retired person but also a small % few have...beyond a tiny Social Security check). 

Then on the other end of spectrum I see the work aholics with their 60 hour or more weeks with money and migraines but little to no fun in life.Then there is that tiny percentage that has the secret sauce where they work so many hours and cap it but also make a lot of money and get the most enjoyment out of everyday.

I'd be perfectly content with quality cash returns over a larger quantity of mediocrity.If I wanted to own a hotel, this path would be different.That being said, keep posting, I learn a TON from your insightful posts!

I've explored this in another market but with tiny homes.
