Hopefully this doesn't sound more complex than I need it to be.

Today, consumers continue to face uphill battles in securing affordable housing and navigating the complexities of mortgage lending.

Consulting a real estate attorney is highly recommended, especially for complex transactions or if the standard forms need modifications.

But fact is, if you were retired now with one paid for 16 unit building/complex, you’d be doing pretty damn well.

I'm trying to figure out if I want to:A) first focus on buying several rentals that could support me (through rent) as I also navigate my other interests, or B) sell my property for around the ARV and grow my equity as I keep flipping houses until I decide to for example, buy apartment complexes.My current real estate goals are to one day own apartment complexes with many units rather than many houses with smaller units. 

The process sounds complex and time consuming, and can someone leverage the time for something that's more rewarding?
