definitely do it. build as many units as you can. owning a rental is an easy pension plan. 20 years ago we tried to convince a relative of ours to use her divorce settlement to buy a multi family house, live in one unit and rent out the rest for supplemental retirement income. nah she wanted to live in the walkable bougie part of the city in a "luxury" rental apartment. she could have owned a multi family outright with the settlement she got but instead blew through all the money in 3 years and is now broke living in a un-permitted structure in her sons back yard spending her days posting on facebook about how bad republicans, right wingers and trump are.
