			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<br/><p><img style="margin: 3px; float: right;" title="How to Invest in Apartment Buildings" src="http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh85/priddle1/Investing_In_Apartment_Buildings.jpg" alt="How to Invest in Apartment Buildings" width="165" height="248" />My focus as a real estate investor and niche for my company has always been single family homes . . . but, I do have to say that there&#8217;s definitely some very appealing characteristics to investing in apartment buildings.</p>
<p>For instance, when you own a single family home and it&#8217;s vacant, how much income are you receiving? Zero, not one penny. Nothing! When you own an apartment building (or just a multifamily property in general), when you have a vacant unit, you still have income from all the other units. And if you&#8217;ve been in the landlording business for very long, you quickly realize that vacancy is one of the biggest profit destroyers you have to continually combat.</p>
<p>Even though my niche has been single family homes, I did purchase a couple small apartment buildings years ago. I bought a 4 unit and 6 unit apartment building in Clemson, South Carolina my first year as an investor. The seller lived in Charleston (right down the road from me) and actually called one of my &#8220;We Buy Houses&#8221; Bandit signs. He just wanted out, and I wound up structuring a 100% owner financed deal to buy the properties . . . how about that!</p>
<p>Anyway, I&#8217;m no expert in buying apartment buildings but get tons of questions on the subject. Sooooo, I decided to go find an expert to interview so that we could learn more about investing in apartment buildings.</p>
<p>His name is Matthew Martinez. He is the author of 2 Years to a Million in Real Estate and <a title="Investing in Apartment Buildings by Matthew A.
