Rookie financing questions
Hey everyone. I am in Alabama and looking to purchase my first two homes for rentals. They are relatively cheap, one at 35k and the other at 45k. My question is, should I finance on a normal 80/20 or should I try to pay as much cash as I can? Or would it be better to pay cash for the 45k and finance the other or vice versa? I would like to use as little of my cash as possible but also want to increase my cash flow as quickly as possible. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I am scared to death to even get started. Thank you everyone!
