My approach was/is as follows:Buy solid properties in good areas.I would put as much cash down as needed to ensure a positive cash flow.I wanted to buy the property and then have it pay for itself no matter what.That means having a healthy cash flow "on paper" so that when Murphy shows up, I don't have to panic and come out of pocket for expenses.If some cases, this meant 30% down in others it was 50% down.I know that's not sexy, it is not some slick house hack.But it is solid, time tested and proven.In doing so, I never had to worry about the property.I made the investment put enough cash down to provide a solid excess to pay for the unexpected.And then I let the market, time, mortgage paydown, and inflation do its thing.
