about the attorneys, why not just do a larger deal that reflects the 5 houses you want that year than an individual deal.

During the recent period of low interest rates I acquired some rentals with a 15% down payment in order to stretch my cash further toward down payments on additional properties.This helped with the down payments and my math showed that even with a little higher interest rate compared with 20% down and the PMI until I was able to remove that this would still be the wiser choice.
