If all you ever want is cashflow, then owning fewer properties with less debt (also known as leveraged) will be ideal. 

Learn, educate, invest in liquid assets to build your portfolio and go from there. 

Besides the podcast (which I listen to while mowing lawns for my lawn mowing business) is there any other education items you would suggest.  

The PM’s thru this are all mostly seasoned and well educated.

Some states are Broker only, others allow sales associate. look into your local education requirements (pre-licensing, state exam and post license course).

If you already have 2 SFRs, you should also try to see how you can leverage the equity built in those properties (assuming this is separate than your existing assets) to eventually buy more properties.

Hi Everyone, this has been a very educating forum, long time listener, first time caller.

You'll have access to MLS to be able to look for deals, keep the commission, list your own deals, referrals commission, document database, you'd have the online tools to submit offers, its a good networking opportunity because you'll be further involved in the real estate community and you'd get more of an educational opportunity because you have to study in order to pass the state exam.The realtor is involved throughout the process.I'm new so I mean.. what the heck do I know?

Educate yourself... 

I'm not a naysayer against high leverage at the beginning, but this seems a little premature in timing.
