New Dentist looking to create a retirement plan for myself thru real estate

[Kyle Jenson]

Hello guys, I found this page through the podcast and the book, Rental Property Investing. Like my title says, I am a dentist in the Kansas City area and am looking at real estate to be my retirement plan. I have been reading many books on finances, rentals, and real estate and feel this is an area I can have more "control" over my investment rather than placing it all in my 401k and hoping for the best. 

With that said, I am in the position where I will not need a monthly income from my rentals. Just looking for some stability and great ways to build equity. Obviously cash flow would be wonderful, but not necessarily needed. I have listened to a podcasts with other doctors talking about this, Anywhere else I can find info or advice or strategies on similar situations? Thank you all.
