However, you may also want to make sure your when Buying an Apartment that your First Apartment Purchase has 15 units or less. Why? Well if you have 16 units in California you will have to have a Residential Manager on site. If you are not in California be sure to check with your REALTOR about any local requirements.

Of course you may want to have a Residential Apartment Manager – but you should be aware of the difference and take into account how this is going to effect the Rate of Return. The residential manager is in addition to any property management firm you hire.

Hello Gene:  Thanks for the info on apartments vs homes as rental units.  It sounds like the rate of return would be higher on the apartments as long as you didn't have to have an on-site manager with free rent.
