I'm about half way done with "The Millionaire Real Estate Investor" by Gary Keller. He gives an example about buying 15 properties in a 20 year period and being able to create equity over $2 million and having a $50,000 annual net cash flow. He talks alot about equity build up and how it's what matters most.
But my question for the real estate investors is that isn't the Cash Flow you get from your properties the reason why you can be a full time investor? Wouldn't equity only matter if you were selling off part of your portfolio?
I'm looking to buy my first rental property next Spring and I'm just thinking that I would have to focus on apartment/multi-units in order to create a higher cash flow because I would rather be free from a job than working full-time but having $2 million in equity. As you can see I'm a little confused.
