Financing rental properties

[Daniel Allen]

I am looking to finance my first rental property. The owner is going to sell it to me if I can come up with the Financing. What's the best way to finance rental properties? If there is a way to finance without using my own money that would be great, but I wasn't sure if that would scare away the guy wanting to sell it to me. I could use some advice from you experienced landlords who purchase rentals all the time. Thanks to anyone who comments.
