Buying several stable properties with high cash flow out of the gates will probably balance out to make as much financial sense as the equity earned in one or two BRRR deals because the equity in the BRRR deals will probably be cancelled out by vacancy losses and opportunity cost. 

Personally, if you can't come up with a 3.5% dp for a 200K property, you are not ready to buy a house yet....I feel that if you can't come up with 20% it's the same, but if you have stable income in a secure field, the 3.5% down payment may be worth the risk.

The most stable market in the history of the world (the us economy) requires a five minute phone to invest and diversify in.

In my opinion, that only makes you a better investor with a less risky, more stable and reliable portfolio.

Cause they will pull your credit score so you need to have a semi decent credit, also they will want % down, you will probably have to declare how much income you have per year and they usually like to see 2 years of stable employment This is for a regular conventional loan

Hello everyone,I am seriously considering getting my license and become an agent but would like to try it out part-time at first to make sure it a good fit for me and my family, but more importantly, it will help me leave my very stable job for a career that I would be much more passionate about. 

Love the area and the real estate market here is very stable and a good place to get started. 

So we are doing our investors as "much as a favor" by giving them a great, safe, stable long term investment and they are by lending us the money to do the deals.

On the other hand, the market in Indiana where we grew up is very stable.
