I side with the prespective that a lot of others have already provided within this forum; however, I did not hear the obvious/ traditional beginners method/approach mentioned.That method/approach being: 1.) obtaining a good deal which equates to me at a minimum of 10-15% (the more the better) below market value based upon CMA (this approach protects you in the case of a slight market downturn)2.) utilizing the business line of credit of $50k to make the 25% down payment (this down payment helps enhance the profit spread you will be able to collect each month in rent from your tenants minus your mortgage and loan repayment)3.)

Again, love the site, hope you take this as a friendly enhancement request.

. §§ 90.396, 90.40324 hoursViolence or threats of violence by tenant or a guest; intentionally causing substantial property damage; giving false information on an application within the past year regarding a criminal conviction (landlord must terminate within 30 days of discovering the falsity); committing any act “outrageous in the extreme” (see statute); intentionally or recklessly injuring someone (or placing them in fear of imminent danger) because of the tenant’s perception of the person’s race, color, religion, national origin, or sexual orientation; second failure to remove a pet that has caused substantial damage

Etc...I'm not saying that you need to hire everything out (as others have said, it's a personal decision), but don't discount how the extra time can help you enhance your business, your income and your family long-term.
