I've read that a good way to get started is to contact some Mortgage brokers who like to partner with people using this strategy.

Other then that all I can say is read as much as you can.

From reading the text on the website I was under the assumption that I could appraise and get rid of my PMI based on the market value of my home and I was told by my servicer otherwise - that for a triplex I would need 65% LTV.

After reading Brandon and Heather Turner's great book on managing rental property we are working hard on setting our business up as they recommended.

Thank you in advance for any advice or resources I can read to educate myself! 

I've been on this site for over a year now, attending webinars, reading daily blogs, and scouring the forums. 

FWIW I've bought all those guys stuff, they all are slightly different and all are very good IMHO.See my business model:  go to my profile, first parapraph, read the file:  Bullet Proof Rental portfolio.Best of luck. 

I read that you said you're using creative financing and you "won't close until you find a tenant".
