Hi Florent!
If you already own 2 properties that are generating a solid positive cash flow I think your in a tremendous position to continue building your real estate portfolio - as long as you continue to acquire multi-unit properties. The current real estate landscape is full incredibly depreciated properties. In real estate, you make your money in the purchase not the sale, so having the ability to get into properties that are so undervalued is a great position to be in right now. The reason I think you would be wise to stay in the business of multi-unit properties is because the current economic conditions are forcing many people out of homes they've purchased and once displaced, there only available option is to find a place to rent in most cases. Thus not only are you acquiring the properties at a tremendous value, but your occupancy rates should be very solid and only continue to get better.

Now if you are really rolling in the dough, you can continue buying up properties as long as you have the time and the patience to take care of them. Keep in mind that there is always the possibility of having a shortage of renters, and in that case you may have to lower rent to get a unit occupied. If you're prepared to handle the unexpected, then go ahead and buy more. Just make sure that you are okay with taking the risk.

Whatever you do BE CAREFUL! There are so many things that can go wrong with rental properties. If you have the money, you'll want to hold on to some of it to pay for unexpected repairs. Set aside some of what you make just in case. Now if you are really rolling in the dough, you can continue buying up properties as long as you have the time and the patience to take care of them.
