great post Joshua.  I purchased two rental properties before I owned my first home and to be honest I didn't know a lot about what I was doing.  I used my best judgement, heeded some advice from friends but the biggest hurdle was getting past the fear of "what if".  I would say those two properties were not great deals but they were good ones and by owning them it has provided me with a wealth of knowledge, experience and courage to keep moving forward!
