Some options are:- Partner with someone- Seek funds from friends and family- Continue to save until you have enough to start on your own- Hard money loans- Owner-occupy a mult-familyThere are a lot of ways to get creative, just make sure you understand what you are getting into before you pull the trigger.

If not, the continuation of obligation won't meet requirements and May effect options for refinancing or obtaining other credit in the future.

Should I continue to buy duplexes/triplexes which are more lucrative, or purchase only single family dwellings which may be more desirable in the upcoming market?

They continued doing this until they moved into larger and larger properties.

Long term I want to continue to rehab as well as buy and hold.I have a lot to learn and am excited to get started!

Hope this excitement can continue for many of years!

Sounds like you're on a good path - cheers to your continued success.

Deals are very hard to come by up here now so we are thinking about taking out a HELOC and continue our REI with that.

I must investigate more before continuing.

Keep it and I'm sure you'll continue to have success, especially with BP on you side.Cheers!
