I would recommend you look for a good neighborhood to buy a multi family in.

Hello All,I'm considering buying a small home on a small lot in LA.

We also have many unique buyer incentives where an investor can get up to a 10% price reduction to come into immediate equity, or get that 10% as a cash back at closing to reduce your down payment and increase your ROI, or buy rates down into the low 4s on 30yr loans to maximize cash flow.

Don’t forget practical items like toiletries, a cozy blanket, and a handwritten welcome note.To balance cost and quality, consider buying in bulk or looking for local products that offer great value.

You can certainly negotiate some closing costs from the seller on the buy side.

For example, if you buy a home for 100k, and then improve the property and now it is worth 200k. 

Will you continue to buy in that neighborhood with your next purchase @Teslim Salami?

Quote from @Chris Brewer: They’re actually asking more for the property that’s just the number I think I can buy it for.

You don't need a conventional bank to buy a property.
