Could anyone recommend a good CPA with a focus on rentals in the Milwaukee area.

If moving to a family home is your priority and 6 months is the deadline then for sure option 1 is not for you. but If you can wait 2-3 years on moving focus on learning how to manage your new tenant(see if you like it) then you will have a better understanding to choose the other options.

@Levi Sigworth For my first house hack I focused on just paying the mortgage.

I was confused why the convention was focused mainly on investing in the US.

wait, you didn't list the prosthe risks you mentioned are correct, but can be mitigated and not nearly as bad as you said. you "risking it all" isn't really correct, market drops are temporary, you can get your money back out (and more) using BRRRonly focusing on the downside is a hard way to get ahead.

Stay focus and keep on networking.

He goes into great depth on the different phases of your business and where you should be focusing your time and energy at each phase.Hope this helps.If you have the ability to get 30 yr mortgage, then thats the correct approach for your phase. 

With the contribution levels that I am doing now I am able to set aside some money for real estate investing (I bought my first single family rental early this year) but I am unsure if I should be focusing more on rental since I will be able to live off of the rental revenue at any age.

What type of property would be best:I'd say start small only because you are still young, so perhaps intern with a really awesome wholesaler in your area or find one that is exceptional somewhere in the country and be their virtual assistant (scrubbing their lists or doing online marketing for them] What banks would be best to get a loan from should I need one:I won't worry about the banks just yet, focus on building your foundations and in the process, you'll get a good lender while on the journey to successBusiness and real estate books/ebooks I should read:MUST buy a hard copy of Rich Dad Poor Dad & buy the CashFlow board game [find a friend of yours who likes a challenge and play the CashFlow game with them-they might be a potential partner in your business in the nearest future] Pitfalls/rookie mistakes beginners make:Make a ton of mistakes!

I'm currently focused in the North West Florida area, but also work in the Spokane, WA. and North Idaho markets.
