So true.

Yes, you will need a cash or PML to buy the house, but it is true of any real estate transaction with the exception of wholesaling. 

This is from ABB and HA.

This is tough for new investors that focus so hard on cash flow as their main criteria.

Hello, bumping this thread to the top.

Again, I believe this would hold true in most urban type markets.Let me know if that helps answer your question or if you have any follow-up questions to this.

Hi John,this is great to hear.

These props were in good areas so I am guessing that is why. keep in mind true A class areas whould see majority of comps being sales to homeowners NOT investors.. homeowners dont care what the cash flow is or the potential rental income is only investors do..

Not necessarily i could do the 20% down for the right place, but less than 20% would be nice, I’ve been saving for this situation.

In order to put a property under contract I need to provide proof of funds I know that I can get that from a hard money lender but I don’t meet there criteria for a loan approval what should I do?
