Multi-Family Property
Multi-unit rental investing with Picket: Quick start guide
Definition:
A Multi-Family Property is a residential building or complex designed to house multiple separate units or families. These properties include duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, and large apartment buildings. Each unit in a multi-family property can be rented out individually, providing the owner with multiple streams of rental income from a single property.
🔍 Did You Know?
Many investors use multi-family properties as a way to scale their real estate portfolios faster, as they can generate more rental income compared to single-family homes.
Examples:
Example 1:
A real estate investor purchases a fourplex, with each unit rented out for $1,200 per month, providing $4,800 in total rental income.
Example 2:
An investor acquires a 20-unit apartment building and leases out each unit to tenants, generating consistent monthly cash flow and long-term appreciation.
Why It’s Important:
Multi-family properties allow investors to generate multiple streams of income from a single asset, providing a more scalable way to invest in real estate. Additionally, vacancies in one unit can be offset by rental income from other units.
Who Should Care:
- Real estate investors looking to scale their portfolios.
- Property managers overseeing multiple rental units.
- Lenders offering financing for income-producing properties.
