Canadian Buying in Rochester, NY

[Chris Ricci]

Hi everyone, 

Brand new to the forums, thanks for taking the time to read. 

I am a Canadian on the West Coast, looking into the possibility of buying in Rochester or Cleveland with a 30-40k budget. I would like to put down as little as possible.

- Is it common to see good cash flow on these types of properties? Are decent tenants easy to come by? 
-  Is seller financing common in these markets? Are there any other methods for a Canadian with no US credit history? 

- Anything else I should expect? Positives? Negatives? I would love to hear about your experience

Thanks!
