How does an individual gather 5, 10, 20, 50+ units of real estate?

These people tend to tell that the key is to use capital that’s not your own – like from a bank. I understand how it works with common mortgage. But let’s say I already have a mortgage, thus own one property/real estate. Now I’m in debt towards the bank and they’re not giving me another loan to buy another flat since I need to be repaying the first one (?).

So, how does it work? Where do these people get the needed money to buy the second property? The third one?

Buy one property. Rent it out for more than the mortgage. Now the renter is paying for it for you. 

Show the bank that the first property is self-sustaining. Get a second loan, since you’re a safe bet, since you have someone else paying that first loan for you.
