BRRRR or buy multiple at one time???

[Curtis Cecil]

So I'm curious to know which way is better.

So let's say I have $100k cash and I can either put 30% down on $100k duplexes, or buy 1 in cash and then BRRRR. Which is better? Numbers show that if I bought 3 houses and after NOI and Debt service I have around $430 per house so around $1290 a month.

If I were to buy a house in cash, do whatever renovations needed and then cash out refinance to do the same thing with the next house and so forth...

The second option I can keep going whereas the first option I don't have any other cash to buy the 4th property... am I correct?
