How do I buy my first rental?

[Juan Garza]

Hello, I am 30 years old and would like to purchase my first rental. I purchased my house in 2009 and have about 81k in equity that I want to put to work ( I owe 194K and it's worth about 275k). I am able to save about 1k a month and have about 10k in savings. I know it's not much, but would really like to start owning properties. Thank you in advance and any advice would me much appreciated.
