        "text": "Fourplex properties can be a strong option for first-time investors, especially if they plan to occupy one unit and use an FHA loan, reducing the down payment and often providing better interest rates. This 'house hacking' strategy allows you to gain landlord experience while having tenants help cover your mortgage. However, be prepared for the added responsibilities of managing multiple units compared to a single-family home.",
