Multifamily vs Single-Family Investments: What’s Better for Passive Income?

Written By Resolution CrossFit

Both multifamily and single-family properties can be profitable—but they operate very differently, especially for passive investors. Let’s break down what makes them unique.

Single-Family Investments

  • Lower entry cost

  • Easier for first-time owners

  • Higher tenant turnover

  • Less scalable

Multifamily Investments

  • More units under one roof = greater efficiency

  • Professional property management is more feasible

  • Lower vacancy risk (one tenant leaving doesn’t mean zero income)

  • Easier to scale with larger deals

Why We Focus on Multifamily

At EIG, multifamily is our bread and butter because it offers:

  • Economies of scale

  • Forced appreciation via renovations

  • Stable returns across market cycles
