I like helping people attain financial security through long term investments, and I love seeing my community made better as old houses in disrepair are transformed into beautiful homes.Regardless of the route you take, I think access to the MLS is a HUGE asset when you're trying to learn about real estate.  

Hard work pays off since it enabled many individuals to attain similar goals!

To me, it equates to learning investing from one of the instructors for a real estate guru's program who doesn't own property.Your income goal is absolutely attainable, the only question will be the time period involved in achieving it.

After attaining my Bachelor’s Degree I started the searcher for my career when I rediscovered my passion in real-estate.

Just a less than 2c comment: Due to Oakland rent control, personally I would allocate some "extra" value to the duplex with 1/1... 1/1 likely more turnover, so easier to attain market rent, affluent renters might be easier to manage and the possibility of living there gives you more options.However, since income is your stated priority - makes decision difficult.

What you've outlined would be a good starting point though to help understand just how much needs to be done to truly hit the free cash flow targets that we aspire to attain.

A lot of people who post on here never invest anyway, but give themselves hope with OOS because it feels more attainable.

I'm advocating to seek the highest possible rent you can for your units by 1) taking care of them, updated/modern, well maintained, etc. and 2) don't be afraid to negotiate with your good tenants to increase rents and not have to kick them out and start the landlord/tenant relationship all over again with other tenants just to attain such market rent. 

Is that attainable?

The biggest problem I am seeing (besides having to almost literally do double the flips to make the same money) is the competition to attain the flip, which is almost double the cost as it used to be.
