In a capitalist society where people compete to have better or more than the next person, you need someone with a lower socioeconomic status to make the higher one possible.  

Bottom line it still goes back to insurance.It’s just another name but it’s still title insurance.The way of the capitalist is to make as much money as possible and insurance companies are capitalist in nature.I'm not sure if you're referring to the search and examination of title, but if you are, I don't know where you're getting your stats. 

Not a correction in housing prices, so much as an equilibrium to the excessive quality of life Americans and the capitalist society has enjoyed during the past century or so.I have been fortunate enough to travel this world far and wide, to almost every continent (except Antarctica) and one thing is for sure: We enjoy a privileged life as Americans.

Don Pena said, in free market capitalistic country, you are only few thousand phone calls away from becoming multi-millionaire. 

The realtor is basically a capitalist just as you plan to be.

A good starting point is George Gammon's Rebel Capitalist Show on YouTube. 

After all, we live in a Capitalistic society.

I found Ellis Hammond who started a Christian mastermind group called the Kingdom Capitalist.

The Rebel Capitalist is a great podcast.

The risks:Earthquakes (insurance does not cover that risk)Political risk (Russia); my opinion, yes, it is a moderate risk, but even lets say Russia should invade Georgia (which I do not consider a likely scenario), would not necessarily mean that your apartments will be taken from you.I personally consider the political risk of western left wing socialism governments dictating you prices and super friendly tenant laws and increasing property taxes and taxing the "bad rich capitalist people" much higher than this risk!
