New to Texas, barely got 20%

Hi all,

Finally making the move onto rental properties. Although technically I’ve already sold a property (my home back in MA) I never thought about it as an investment, to me it was just selling a home. Seeing how well that investment turned out for me I know want to get into rental properties. I’m currently reading Brandon’s book on rental properties. And wanted to officially jump in the forum for further education.

and yeah I already have a question haha.

After all debt has been paid to zero, and all safety buckets filled, I have about 20% down for a 100k property left. Should I go forward looking for deals, or stack a bit more to have a padding and the 20%?


Thanks
