Feeling frustrated ... your thoughts

As I continue to explore and prepare to be a REI I am finding people around me being very doubtful and advising against. The feedback is always about the headaches, constant tenant problems, constant repairs, evictions, etc. What are your thoughts and experiences? I am very appreciative of the Bigger Pockets community and the people I have been connecting with and the books and materials I have been reading because I am not feeling the support from those around me.

Thanks everyone!

    14 years, 26 SFHs, never a 2am broken toilet call, never an eviction.  It's not for everyone, but for those with the right skills, it is a wonderful way to build wealth and cash flow life.
