I know I want to start with SFH or multifamily as it fits my current lifestyle to invest in that area. 

I want to start getting into multifamily rental properties but cannot wrap my brain around getting into that much debt even if it means a more comfortable lifestyle with the increased income.

They find my lifestyle and the houses lol. 

Just realize that GC's must work today to earn today's income which isn't the passive lifestyle that attracts people to real estate investing.

It is all a matter of your goals (i.e. equity accumulation or supporting a lifestyle with cash) and your ability to redeploy capital effectively (i.e. is your cash just sitting or are you buying more properties)

I’m currently supporting our lifestyle and my wife’s schooling.

Don't know your neighborhood or family lifestyle, but if an RV will fit there, then buy one and rent it out. 

I will gladly take the extra headaches of additional calls from my property managers for now, although once someone has enough money that they can comfortably live their lifestyle however they want, I definitely understand removing as many headaches from one's life as possible. 

Conventional or government style loan considers a lease as a permanent lifestyle choice.

In regards to hobbies, I love to live an active lifestyle.
