I would go so far to say, if you read a few books and you stay after it and don't drop the ball, it's actually almost difficult to screw it up in a major way.

I've had a few discussions about the best way to create a plan in order to "snow ball" your way to owning many REI properties (buy and hold for rent).After Googling around and even reading blogs on this site, I've thought about doing something like the following:Buy my first rental property (SFH) with cash (around $60-70k) where I'd expect about $500 cashflow per monthCurrently I have about $105-110k available (after taking out an emergency fund)Then shortly after, buy my second rental property (SFH) but take out a mortgage and put down around 25% on a $60-70k houseThe cash flow on this property specifically would likely break even (at or near 0) but this would be on a 15 year mortgage and I can use some (or most) of the cash flow from the first to help pay down that mortgage faster, along with my corporate job monthly savings tooI feel I could pay it off anywhere from 5 - 10 years depending on the exact strategy If/When I get the 2nd one, then shortly after that, try and get a 3rd SFH rental property and continue this snow ball effect to build up by rental portfolioObviously this is easier said than done, along with risks and I honestly do not have any real experience with rental properties as this is my first time diving into this type of investing.My main questions would be -- Has anyone done a similar strategy to help build their portfolio quicker?

Me personally, NO DEAL because unless they're truly ready to sell and ultimately take advantage of your help (investors are problem solvers that specialize in creating win-wins) then you could waste time at a profit margin that only seems like a win for seller and not another investor.I like to keep the ball rolling.
