Now, you need to figure out how to find deals and pay for them.

As Sean above alluded to- never pay a seller for your future hard work, risk and stress. 

Remember, in this model, you are planning on holding on to these properties as rentals so pay now in quality, or pay later in headaches and repair costs.

@Parmesh P. there is no such TDA paying 7% or even 6% long term,5 years or longer.

Never pay an upfront fee.You didn’t mention your state but understand that with little exception, an NMLS registration is only required for consumer-purpose loans.

My guess is that you will pay less per month with multifamily than a single family. 7.

There aren't many lake front properties in that area for sale, but there are a number that are in the 800k range.

I took a long break and I'm paying for it now LOL!!

Since they can't do each property individually, they use comparable sales to make broad generalizations to determine percent changes.

On the other hand, I’m hesitant to simply pay down more of a property, as we don’t need the immediate cash flow.Fortunately, both my wife’s job and mine are recession-proof, which allows us to be a bit more aggressive with our investments.I’d really appreciate advice from investors who have experience with frequent moves or military service.
