With that being said, would it be considered "nooby" to lock up that much money trying to purchase a home do to the massive increase in down-payment?

You can avoid massive headaches and costly mistakes through some of the advice and experience on here, there’s plenty of pitfalls we made that you can avoid by reading and asking questions.Cleveland is one of the best turnkey market and the most popular for investors because of high rental demand and low cost of entry, property prices are pretty inexpensive here.

The take massive action.

I have 5 multi family properties and I am currently doing a cash out refi on one of them now and its a pain jumping through the hoops with the bank since my tax return from two years ago show a major lost which was due to a massive renovation I done on my quadplex but it throws my debt to income ratio out of whack so I have to provide pics and receipts just been a pain so talking with a local bank I was presenting with the option to wrap my loans into a commercial under my LLC to allow for more flexibility to buy more properties.

I think there is a great opportunity to put out more renovation specific content, and a massive demand for it.If you have't noticed..

When I speak to homeowners, I do not try to get them under contract to later just back out of it leaving them screwed, I do not lie about how assignments work and I do not lie about being a big time cash investor with massive amounts of cash on hand. 

I'm pretty sure when he spends the night he is vaping in the tenants room.

I live here and I'm familiar with Lake Nona.. be advised that there is a lot of high-end investing there, mainly because there is a massive medical park going in there.

Paying all cash for a rental that you plan on holding is a fool's game (unless you capture massive equity and don't plan on holding long term).

Remember " Be consistent and take massive action"  You do this and you will succeedHave a great day
