Hey George, congratulations on starting your real estate journey! 

It starts with doing 10-20% of the work and paying much lower taxes.

Currently have a great job but want to start acquiring  2-4 unit complexes.

Excellent start. 

I started my LLC in the summer and still working through some kinks getting website started for marketing.
