30% down - where my time is valuable Q

So If i put 30% down on a rental I am going to obviously cash flow more, and get more $ of the payment going to equity in my home.

In my current career I make enough where it would make more sense for me to focus more time and energy in making more income at work, than hunting non-stop at this time for a 25% down rental.

All that being said, I am happy paying 30% down to get a rental that will cashflow more. Does anyone have any glaring "NO" to share on why this is maybe not advised? My time is more valuable at my organization at this point. Let me know thoughts?
