Using leverage to scale, such as borrowing against this cash for larger down payments?

I agree with what others above said, that having a reliable, honest and knowledgeable team is the most important thing...more so than perhaps the location. 

They make their money off of real estate agents, but real estate agents are the worst people to make money off because they are highly unreliable and in and out of the business when the market changes.Their target should be the consumer with higher levels that they can subscribe too for data, since Zillow is linked to the MLS now which makes their data somewhere more reliable.

Naturally I asked "how do I find a reliable wholesaler?

Let me know how it works out with them, wondering if they are a reliable source.

Assume you will be making payments in it.  

All that matters is whether the property will attract reliable tenants (A reliable tenant stays many years, pays the rent on schedule, and takes good care of the property).

Hi, I was wondering if there's any good reliable places to market tenant in place + management in place properties. 

Building a strong financial plan, researching markets, assembling a reliable team, and having an exit strategy are essential steps to success.Good luck!
