This is supplemented by one and only real estate investment, a vacation rental condo I bought for cash 2.5 years ago at the bottom of the market.

I am new to real estate investing, my only real estate experience is that I bought my first house about a year ago and I currently rent out some of the rooms to make some supplemental income.

My goals in real estate is for it to supplement if not replace my current income.

Instead of paying the 1k/mo I pay now, I'll be paying just a few hundred in utilities for my side and to supplement cap ex/repairs.

Still a ways out from retirement, but my goal is to have rental income supplement (maybe eventually replace) the income from my job.
