5 small rental properties should make me feel rich and secure. The income from 3 should be enough, but with 5 comes “low risk” part.

Still you need to maintain the properties. You can’t expect the tenant to pay for fixing the roof or bathroom leaks, painting the house etc. That not replacing lightbulb etc
