Many of us do it over a long period of time taking advantage of inflation and rents paying down our mortgage.As long as you buy a property with positive cash flow you should be fine even if the market softens for a while. 

Assuming the tenants are month-to-month, you could soften the blow by increasing small amounts over time.

This is a get rich slowly game and no need to jump into the deep end right away.If you can get it pre-leased that usually softens a lot of risk.

The market has softened as a result of higher prices and higher interest rates.Jobs in the zip code are mainly in the services sector, including retail, hotels, restaurants and entertainment and some light manufacturing.

Seems like it'll soften the blow a bit. 

In my area is very common SFR tenants pay for utilities, therefore utilities are not included in my property leases (electrical, gas,  water, sewer, garbage, salt for water softener, etc). 

When we see some softening, we'll move.One last thing to consider: beware of looming property tax increases.

We have already hit the top we can look down for a while...If Trump softens the trade the trade war and the Fed Loews interest rates we have about 9-12.

It’s softening like Austria.

Those prices will soften at some point.
