Right now I'm living in Baltimore, still working 9-5 W-2.

My dream is to achieve financial freedom through multifamily rental properties and live life on my own terms.Recently, I have been reading one book after another, trying to absorb as much information as possible, and am extremely thankful to finally find this amazing community.

I own a single family home in Socal that my wife and i currently living in.

You can buy a solid duplex with $1800 rents and no owner expenses for $350-$4325,000 that will appreciate and build wealth and cashflow.

Cleaning has gotten really expensive. 

I actually have a client who lives in Toronto as well! 

 (3 convention units +  3 ADUs) * 3 lots = 18 unitsIn general adding one ADU is not a good investment because there is no more expensive residential development than a single, small unit.  

Our next big objective is to eliminate our housing expenses by purchasing a triplex or fourplex using my VA benefits.

(I lived in Houston for 29 years--last place was the Rice Lofts downtown.  

Just google the following: - special assessment - zombie condos - Florida condos (look for recent news)Since you are not living near the properties anyways, why not look in a landlord friendly state where the purchase prices are lower?
