I am interested in investing in something a bit more passive as I am getting older and, while I love the real estate asset class, I do recognize the need for multiple streams of income. 

When your rental income is 1.5-2x the mortgage payment - as is typical for highly refined STR strategies - they're basically not concerned about the mortgage payment.

@Jemini LeckieRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

It’s usually best to open a separate business checking account so your rental income and expenses stay organized and away from personal funds.
