:) Well, if the planes take off and land from east to west, buying a home that is north or south is not directly in the flight path. 

They will see a large pipeline of local deals, and they will buy some as rentals, flip others, and flip the contract (wholesale) a handful where it makes sense.

If he's he only one in the area, you could try to do it yourself by making everything automated (such as e-locks, internet, security, laundry, etc.) 

I'll be specifically looking to start in the Cincinnati, Ohio and lean towards targeting buy and hold single family and potentially multi family as well.Any advice is appreciated and I look forward to connecting. 

Did you buy "points" to reduce the rate margin?

I have better luck with posting in the zillow rental section;   rent before you buy, live in a great property while you get yourself ready to finance a great home....Our business model;   protect the buyer or tenant at even our own expense. 

I warn people over and over and over to know what they are buying and to go personally see what they are buying. 

She will probably game the system for the next 6-12 months, but that's what you get buying a property with a non-paying tenant in place, in an anti-landlord city. 

I will add that to your question of 10% or 20%, you need to ask yourself whether you need the cashflow or not. 10% down would leave some money with which to buy more properties.

If it is, why can't you buy similar properties that you are renting with the money you make.If you get $200,000 annually(split proceeds with the other owner), you should be able to buy almost any type of property.
