Just curious what avenues you (and any others) have as far as starting down the path to REI. Would you advise that a person start with SFR residential and then branch off into multis or start with multis? If you guys had to do it over again what would you have done differently and why?

Thanks for all your input- you guys (as with most everyone here) are a wealth of info, and I really appreciate you sharing with those of us who are just getting going!
