How to buy rentals with little or no money
I am a virgin investor. The only real estate experience i have is the purchase of my personal residence and I have excellent credit. I want to purchase a rental property and become a landlord but i would like to know how it can be done with little or no money down. The lender I spoke to said I would need to bring to the table at least 20% down plus closing costs. I have that money on my TSP (similar to 401k) but I am hesitant to get that out of my TSP account. Can someone please guide me how people get buy and hold properties with little or no money down.
