I am desperate to generate some type "passive" cash flow positive rental income to supplement my money wife's salary to support our family us while I am in school.

My husband and I our entrepreneurs, so my goal is to supplement our income thru real estate, owning up to 5 multi-family units.My husband has his own projects and hobbies, so this is my deal.

For the heirs, his needs are supplemented without depleting their inheritance.

So by proving you're eligible for re-enlistment, it says to the lenders that you have the ability to pay the mortgage because you have a job.Now for getting out from a financial standpoint, I would totally buy a multifamily so your living cost is supplement by your rental income that way you're not as worried about paying your living expenses and you have options when it comes to jobs and maybe move to a different state while still receiving rental income For example,  I was at risk getting out in March of 2016.  

Supplemental (not sure what that is for)3.

My short-term goal is to find my first property within the next 18-24 months with my long-term goal of buy and hold investing with enough cash flowing properties to supplement or possibly replace my income and support my family's desired lifestyle.Outside of my career and interest in real estate, I enjoy spending time with my wife and children.  

To supplement that comment for the forum readers, I am viewing limited downside risk as selling the house for less than $520k to begin to take a loss.

I always knew I would get into rentals but I thought it would be when I had paid off all of our debt and our mortgage and likely when I was in my 50's so that I could supplement my income into retirement.  

I'll be focused primarily on multi-family homes but also open to SFR to supplement my portfolio.I live in Robbinsville NJ, a few miles from Trenton, NJ.

Lost income is unimportant to hobby landlords, their priority is to do as little management as possible and believe supplementing tenants rent will hold them longer and therefor avoid him having to do any work.
