Quote from @Ricardo Lemus: For a newer investor, a good investment is a property that pays for all expenses with some cash left over.

Using a HELOC to fund your first rental can be a great strategy, especially if you want to preserve your cash for other expenses or unexpected costs.

They had exhibited the desire to pay down debt and had cashed out the parks before us that had agreed to owner finance.

Purchase price: $125,000 Cash invested: $65,000 Sale price: $250,000 Wish I could have held onto it but needed the money to fund future deals What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Hi there, if you're open to holding onto the property, converting it into an Airbnb or short-term rental could significantly increase your cash flow, especially with the current demand for rental properties.

It is going to be near impossible to cash flow on a property with 100% financing, especially if that partners rates are above conventional rates.

I have enough liquid money for the down payment for the hard money lender, but that'll leave me with zero cash for closing costs, realtor fees, etc.

Cash offers would net you less.  

The reason is the rent-to-price ratio is good so you can cash flow, and most of the West side doesn’t have a Point of sale inspection which is really annoying.
