However, its downfall (and really what makes it so easy) is that it is a single-entry system. 

For #3, I see multiple properties being sold like this, not $30k; but $200k properties being sold at tax deed auctions for $50k-75k#4 - I don't see how this could be realistic, how would someone have time or money to visit every single property in person especially when participating in multiple auctions across the state?

I was specifically interested in his 2nd plan which was "Building wealth through single-family homes" where he basically says you save enough to buy your first property along with enough for other fees and then you just keep saving the money you make from that property along with some money you save from your job and once you have enough money you buy your next property and then you basically just keep repeating that until you have your desired amount of properties.

I'm primarily single families and 2-4 units

Long-term single or small multifamily rental would be our strategy to go. 

Do you provide move in and move out reports How many pictures do you take of the property prior to tenant moves in and after the tenant moves outDo you get weekly reports when the property is vacant what prospective tenants are saying about your homeDo you provide monthly newsletters to your tenantsDo you hold investor education classes to help me become a better investorDo you have single point portfolio based management services?

These options could provide flexibility with your upfront costs and monthly payments.Expand Your Search Radius or Property Type:If you’re set on a single-family home, you might find more affordable options by expanding your search to nearby areas in San Diego County or by considering properties that need a little TLC.Partnerships:Partnering with another investor or family member might be a way to pool resources for a purchase.

And, personally, I don't think a brand attached to 5 single family rentals is worth a premium.

I have lots of experience in all types of single-family investing, small partnerships in multifamily and commercial, and a vast knowledge of construction.

I own a single family home in Socal that my wife and i currently living in.
