@Greg RobergeWelcome to the site.Best advice I can give you is to start at your own pace.

With that you could build your portfolio at a pace of two or more properties per year.

People who want to move from the  fast pace of the Center City area will often find their way to this area. 

I can move at a snails pace to pick them up, but I know even my best properties can sit vacant for months.  

If that is the pace of your passion then you are in for a very painful learning experience.

Based on the $1,500/month payment plan it seems like you're getting 1.4% interest, so again something now is better than a rate that doesn't even keep pace with inflation.  

As all we're involved in now is commission based, it could be a nice change of pace.

Although I will need to cut back a little with the hotel opening, but in 2 months or so I should be able to pick up the pace again.

So I am closing on my first property which is a fha owner finance triplex this august which is great to me but going on this pace with only a 3.5 down payment will only get me so far on hitting my goal which is to retire me and my wife in 7 years with passive income of 7 thousand a month.

I think everyone is a little different and you need to go at your own pace.
