Buy properties with more and more units.- Can also try to do seller financing, but much harder to find.

@Derick JenningsRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

What would I need to do to structure the note in order to have a note buyer come in and buy the note or buy a partial enough to pay off the 215k at closing and still have some difference coming to me or the note revert back to me after the partial was paid for. 

The early portion of my career was buying turnkey rentals, like the one you described. 

The type of home you buy determines the tenant you get. 

If you're planning to buy in the US, there are programs for those that aren't US citizens.

Quote from @Mindy Nicol: Investment Info:Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment in St Augustine.

Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment in Valdosta.

Those that preach no/low down payments are mostly just trying to appeal to the masses who want everything for nothing that will buy their courses.

The secret is deploying an unfair advantage and/or buying good assets + time.
