Buy with cash or get a loan?

[Gina Chang]

Hello Everyone, I have no experience in real estate investing but I have been really interested in it and am taking courses which will lead me to this filed. I hope to learn from all of you too. My goal is to be a landloard. I am looking at a couple of properties right now. My question is: Suppose I have around $80,000 cash available, is it better to buy a property with all cash or buy two by paying some downpayment and get loans? What's your opinion? Any input is appreciated!
