I have been thinking about buying a rental (or a 4-plex) for several years. People who have done it, how did you learn, and what is your advice? I know at this time I am very uneducated about it and I want to learn before I decide if this would be a good idea for me. I don't feel in a big rush b/c I think I have some time before prices start increasing dramatically. I am in Albuquerque and am planning to do it either here, or possibly in San Diego. I see Abq as an obvious choice for convenience (and easier to navigate laws), but I expect San Diego has a better chance for higher appreciation over time.
