If their is any additional Education I should look into that you suggest please do so.Thanks BP

This way it won't go against your leverage requirements. - find other equity investors to partner up with you- in a pinch, you may be able to get (expensive) personal loans and LOCs through sites like lendingclub, sofi etc..

Do not get over leveraged so that you need to sell when the market is depressed and historically you will do great.I have also purchased an RE at near cash neutral. 

The relationships that i have been able to build and leverage has been invaluable. 

@Mike S. this technique is how you will leverage your equity and grow your portfolio faster.

Leverage Risk.

I don't want to expose my family to unnecessary risk/leverage, but I also want to build on the momentum.I would be very grateful to hear the thoughts of this community on how to stay on the gas and not hit the breaks for at least a year and risk losing any momentum.

May find more favorable leverages with a hard money lender who looks more at the deal and not as much on your income potentially?

Please note that there are numerous "tracks" of additional education for you to peruse on a variety of topics. 

It is not good for buy and holds will you will be quickly tapped out, over leveraged, and with a variable rate that will only go up and then reset at the end of the draw period.
