Instead of purchasing a traditional single-family home, some new home buyers are buying two-, three- and four- unit family homes—and playing a risky, but potentially lucrative, game of real estate investor and live-in landlord at the same time. By renting out the other unit(s), you may be able to afford a bigger payment because the rental income will offset your monthly payment, while you may be building equity in the property.
Multifamily home is a good option to consider!
