Hopefully, everyone stays safe and the firefighters can get a handle on it soon.

If you have access to some money you can increase your equity in one jump.

Here’s a bit of background on my current situation:I own one rental property that generates $1,900 per month in rental income, and it is paid off ($300K).My primary residence is also paid off ($288K).I’m currently building another rental property with cash ($200K).

In my market, I only have one vendor qualified for appliance warranty work, and the warranty companies paid him half his standard fee for each service call. 

No one will care more about your success then you.

I am in one of the higher tax brackets and could be saving around 40k~ a year on taxes with this.

We only provide one key to the tenant and that is the key to the front door, no other doors.Some tenants will change lock on you.

One word of caution.  

U have to be able to run your own title work since you will be looking at 20 to 30 props to narrow down to one so not feasible to pay for title on them all. 

Except you insist on giving the OP a "yes" based on the generic strategy (A) while I insist on giving him a "no" based on his specific situation (B).To answer your question to me - no, I'm not trying to be controversial.
