Cashflow over equity

[Andrew Sanders]

I am just getting into investing and am working on determining my niche, I know my current goal is cashflow over equity. Simply because my short term goal is to be able to quit my W2 job. Once I have reached that goal I plan to transition into a different area with a greater focus on equity. My question is: what is the best way to build cashflow, particularly when starting out? Should I focus on single family or multi-family? Or is there some third option that would work better?
