In Dayton, I find most of my clients like A/B class 1-4 units because they can actually cash flow AND be in great areas.

If everyone took the cash for keys approach, then the odds of a LL getting such a tenant increases.I have never had to do a cash for keys.  

I think that's a valid concern, but my gut reaction is that he actually won't care too much after he has his cash/payments.

BP is not a great place to air out is this coach good or that program good.. as you stated 90% of the people on here are single minded they relate everything to owning a cash flow home and everything else is just gambling or guru speak or whatever..

Does it cash flow?

$10K seems like a nice, round number...Finally, if you have $250K in cash, I would not put it all into a single property / single dealHope this helps... happy to help further

There is a $340 difference but if you had to put down a 15% down payment that means you would be putting down $30,000 more at closing which would be left in the property unless you held it long enough to do a cash out refinance ($200,000 x 15% = $30,000).

I went all in, I had a few 401K’s so I cashed in the one that was growing the slowest and took the penalty and purchased my first property.

While I’ve considered cash-out refinancing or HELOCs, the high rates make these options less appealing.I’m debating between using cash to acquire more SFRs or diversifying into mixed-use retail properties.

Unlike cash buyers or those with extensive experience in the market, many younger buyers are still navigating the mortgage process while actively house hunting.
