Buying first rental property

[Matt Rathgeb]

Looking to purchase my first rental property . Getting mixed opinions from investors I know on whether to use all cash or get a mortgage. Was planning on buying cash, getting a tenant, then cashing out to get another one, and so on...... what do you guys think? I’m a newbie. I have a contracting business that feeds me well. My goal for purchasing real estate is for the long term .. TIA! Matt
