I can't afford to be on the sidelines any longer.

I can only imagine investors with 10+ properties are closing in on a 7 figure liability - Is the rental income enough to justify that magnitude of debtOn top of that, I will want to get a personal home soon as well (currently house hacking a duplex), I wouldn't want real estate investment debt to be a burden on me missing out on a dream homeThen of course I'm cash stricken after putting down the 20%, so it will take some time before my current property generates enough to where I'm ready to afford another down payment (also it should be noted I'm not thrilled about the idea of raising capital through others)How do you manage your debt as you scale your portfolio?
