What to do next?

[Joe Campbell]

I'm looking for a little guidance on where to go next in my investing portfolio.  A little about where I'm at:

1. I own 3 single family home rentals in Western MI, paid $35k cash for each, they are cash flowing about $5000/year each and current value is around 50k each. They are owned in separate LLC's (single owner) so I cannot refinance them and cash out without putting them in my name.

2. My primary residence is mortgaged at 205k and its worth about 300k. I have a HELOC on that with 45k available as needed.

3.  I currently have zero CC or Auto Debt.  Credit is about 740.  Only about 5k in savings currently.

My ultimate goal is to get to a total of $6000 in cash flowing properties per month.  

My question to the forum is what should I do next? I was thinking of applying for a new mortgage, purchasing a fixer upper here in Phoenix, then use part of the HELOC to pay the down payment as well as do repairs. After that I would rent it out and refinance it to get my cash back. Rinse and repeat.

What recommendations does the forum have?

Have you considered selling your existing SFH as turnkey properties to other investors and either moving into higher end properties with leverage or leveraging that equity into a small MFR?
