One step at a time. It's definitely a "get rich slow" scheme. The vast majority of your wealth gain in real estate will be by holding properties long term and the appreciation/principal paydown will slowly but surely help you become wealthy.

For 90% plus of people out there who are looking to start, house hacking is the best way to go. You just can't beat the financing available, the rate is good but the LTV (96.5% on FHA loans) is unbeatable.
