There are so many variables and some of the biggest misunderstandings come from regional variances on how these variables are handled (mortgages & financing especially).I had thought progressing towards multifamily and then commercial was the obvious path to follow, but one conversation changed it all.

Quote from @Kevin Bartel: Quote from @Wale Lawal: @Kevin BartelSince you're in a high-income, time-constrained position, passive investing is a strong option, but there are multiple paths depending on your goals.

This is not ideal but financially the best path. 

Your path won't be the same as others.

The thing that you have to remember is that the path of progress and a neighborhood "turning over" moves at a glacial pace.

Trying to understand what multi family rentals are and learning how I can invest or convince myself to invest into it or learn more on this topic to understand this is not my path.

My wife and I finally found our path to our first rental!

Seller will owner finance the portion she can.To those who have been walking down this path, how are you funding these projects?

You can be in any market you choose as long as you buy correctly.
