although we are in vastly different markets, i would encourage your plan. you are on the right track and you have the right mindset. i have a couple of rentals in california, and it has been the best thing i have ever done. i learned everything for free on the internet. do not pay to learn, it is all already available. you will develop relationships with realtors and lenders... don't just use your friend's friend as a lender or realtor. get someone who might already be doing what you are planning to do- they have a keener understanding of that market and what to look out for.
i also have a lender that has pulled some strings and did some mickey mouse shit (nothing illegal) to make deals happen. you need to find someone that is actually on your side instead of wanting to sell you just anything.
