@Brant Richardson My plans for my first deal are to find a single family or multifamily unit that I can acquire with little down and mostly seller financing here in the Tempe area.

You also will probably figure out as you acquire more properties if you will be able to handle 1 more.

Once the first property is done I would then look to move into the next property which I acquire, repeat process of potential frustration.Scenario 2:Alternatively, I have thought about looking at purchasing a duplex to get started and renting out one half while living in the other.

Another resource I've read says to never acquire property for more than 8 times gross annual rents.

Hi All ,I am going to be spending 150k on properties 30 k or under , my goal is to purchase 7 properties that are all cash flowing.Once this is achieved I plan to take a loan against the value of these properties and do it all again.Hopefully I'll be able to acquire around 10 properties bringing in around $400 each a month after expenses.Please let me know if you think this is achievable?

Also, I am interested in possibly forming partnerships with other investors in acquiring Multi-Family units with the goal of turning out decent cash flows.

I'm guessing that you learned that the laws in Oregon make a big difference in what you do, in comparison to the majority of the replies that you acquired from your posting.

I was deciding on whether to acquire my real estate license, but from the looks of the direction I am heading.

Eventually I want to acquire Vacation rental & Commercial properties on the island of Jamaica where I'm from.

First figure out what you want out of your investment specifically, them move to acquire as much info as possible.
