Single-family homes are a good way to start because they’re simpler to manage and you can learn the basics of tenant screening, maintenance, and cash flow without getting overwhelmed.If you’re thinking about multi-family down the road, start by analyzing 2–4 unit properties in the area.

It is much simpler to be able to just import everything.
