This approach can work for those with strong deal potential but raises questions about leverage, risk management, and lender flexibility.What are your experiences with 100% financing or gap funding strategies?

I know that would be the easiest approach but wondering your thoughts.2.

Can try to reposition to Class B, but neighborhood may impede these efforts.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, but 15-20% should be used to also cover tenant nonpayment, eviction costs & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores of 560-620 (approaching 22% probability of default), many blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 2 years.

This depends on the market and your approach.
