Set big goals, and break it down into smaller, more easily achievable ones.

Have you achieved this?

@Frank Connelly Welcome to the BP community and I hope you achieve your goals!

I personally have not achieved this with single family homes because managing the property manager is a lot of work especially if you have multiple houses.

Really, the main purpose for those, is to help people achieve their home ownership, not to help them purchase an investment property.Another thing to keep in mind is that, if you decide to purchase another home a year later and hope to rent this one out, if you didn't have that much cash to buy the first one, you might find it very hard to secure another one.

Many people underestimate this problem and often are happy to climb the “euphoria of celebrity” and recognition only to see the dark side of the same.
