I agree--a good part of diversification--but it certainly isn't fast money. The best part is the leverage if you borrow to buy, and (after the mortgage is paid) great cash flow. If I were stating out, I'd make an effort to do commercial instead of residential. Less tenant turnover, no midnight calls.
