When starting out and doing most of the work yourself (or paying help in pizza and beer), remember perhaps the one most important phrase in this wonderful rental business:  "THE ONLY THING WORSE THAN A VACANT UNIT, IS A UNIT WITH A BAD TENANT IN IT."

But if the market smiles on you .. then when you sell you can reap the rewards.but do remember unless your going to 1031 and keep rolling up you wont really see that cash.. and if you want the cash then you will just give back your tax benefits in the form of recapture.. but you will always have the debt pay down from your lease tenants.. .. and in the old days if you could get a tenant to pay off your house.. then that was OK and I still think that is OK in strong markets..
