IMHO as high income airline pilots with access to even more earning power on our days off, SFR and heck even property less than 10 doors is not worth out time. As accredited investors being a limited partner on a large apartment complex or self storage unit is far more efficient use of time and resources.
Only caveat I would add is if you have a spouse that is either a real estate agent and/or willing to manage the property then SFR or AirBnB could yield substantial tax savings as a pilot could write off the depreciation against pilot W2 income if you can prove "material participation".
