Yes, multi-family properties give a better bang for the buck then single-family rental (which is what I own). However, the numbers need to work either way.

In my area, South Florida its very different to find a small multi-family that shows positive cash flow once I run the financials through my property calculator.

I plan to start looking in the midwest come 2018 where the numbers look much better.

Always nice to see another real estate enthusiast on steemit. I post about RE here a bit but mostly on my scaredycatguide.com website.
