Now, how does this work without causing massive amounts of inflation, well the company still hires out their positions as same rate, then the US government steps in and supplements the income VIA stimulus for an employee that makes under a certain amount, because lets face it a CEO making 500K does not need a pay increase.

Would like to pick up a 2-4 unit property to supplement yearly income.

Hey @Ceasar Blackman, I can attest that you don't need a job to supplement your real estate skills... as I went straight from high school to real estate. 

We've been consistent with our out-of-state absentee owner and probate mailings, but our phones don't ring like they did back when we were active with the bandit signs.We've tried the following to supplement our mailing campaigns:- Calling landlords from the local newspaper- Calling FSBO's from Zillow- Paying a VA to send "are you interested in selling" messages to landlords posting their properties on "house-for-rent" websites- "Driving for dollars"...and a few other things that I can't think of at the moment.I don't know if it's the seller's market we're still in in this area or what, but we're having a challenge right now getting leads coming in.  

Our ultimate goal is to own several properties to supplement our income and enhance our retirement, in addition to our current self funded retirement plans and my city pension.

I'm an agent as a supplement to my w-2 job and it's been a good thing for me for the last couple of years.

Many "investors" see writing a book or selling their program as a way to supplement their income, in fact some see advising as their main business.

i have a few questions and im hoping some one can enlighten me a bit or at least point me in the right direction. my name is Gerardo im fairly new to RE and BiggerPockets for that matter. i reside in newark nj and im in law enforcement. i have recently decided to create as a goal 10k in passive income within the next 11 years to supplement my pension. at that time both of my children will be headed into college and id like to be able to rely on just the police and fire pension sysytem. i want to that by using the buy and hold method.my first question is though i currently dont have a huge amount of cash (im saving a lot though) do i utalize an FHA loan even though pmi will be attached making cashflow that much less or do i sacrafice passing up on deals untill have enough for a 20% down of some kind?
