Duplexes, Triplexes, Four-plexes: An Increasingly Attractive Investment Market.

By sonoran • March 3rd, 2009

The tenant pool is increasing for the smaller apartment building properties.  These buildings tend to be a bit older with less amenities and command a lower rent.  With a lower incomes and some uncertainty vacancy rates for well marketed small multifamily properties are lower then larger complexes with offer lots of amenities but higher rent.

Priced for small multifamily properties are very attractive resulting in good returns, especially when partnered with good financing, these can make very good cash flow positive income properties that can be held for a long time.

Financing is a bit more difficult to obtain, usually 25%.  Some buyers decide to purchase a fourplex as an owner occupied property- for that purpose.  Loans for owner occupied multifamily properties can be purchased for as little as 3.5% down with an FHA loan and they will still cash flow.
