Purchase price: $425,000 Cash invested: $5,000 Helped my past client out of a difficult situation.

A multi-unit property was purchased for $140k. 

Purchase price: $65,000 Hybrid Fix & Flip, bought, made minor repairs and clean out.

When the home was purchased, it was conventional loan and the basement had tenants.

Purchase price: $110,000 Cash invested: $45,000 Recently purchased my first house to use as a primary residence, currently I am renovating the kitchen and adding a full bathroom to the first floor.

I have a couple of buyers that will purchase without due diligence.  

I am a rookie investor hoping to purchase my first property within the next 90 days.Kwanza Hi Kwanza,The first thing you'll need to decide is whether or not you want checkbook control of your self directed IRA. 

I'm now finally here in person, and have started to go view places in person with the intent of purchasing. 

That was an excellent non-answer to my question, Skyler. hihi :)No they are not all the same. some are only interested in dealing with conventional purchases other are as you say better at handling assignments or double closes, some are commercial specialty, etc....A investor friendly one would be, at least from my point of view, one that understands there may need to be some last minute wheeling, dealing, and adjustment made to close a deal, understand what needs to be done and do not freak out about creative deals.Maybe my understanding or thoughts are wrong but that's what I meant by investor friendlyregards :) 

Quote from @Jeffrey Bourque: Hello All, I am new and this is my first attempt at purchasing a property with the intent to create monthly cash flow.The property: Triplex Listed at $140,000 - Total monthly rent income $2,150 - Tenants want to stay and are all willing to sign new leases for 3 years - 8 beds 5 baths and 3,500sqft livable space on a 4,800sqft lot - Heat and electric paid by tenants and water trash paid by owner $180 month - I have managed to talk the selling price down to $105,000 with a kick of $10,000 for closing and commissions so $115,000 all in - Building is in fairly good shape according to pictures and questions but have not done a inspection yet - some general maintenance repairs are needed according to the seller but nothing that seems to bother the tenants. - Taxes are on the higher side at $6,000 yearMy Numbers: $115,000 putting 20% of my money $23,000 and finance the rest with total expense of $1,834Monthly expense numbers: Future Maintenance 13% $273 - Vacancy 5% $105 - Property Insurance 5% $105 - Property Taxes 23% $500 - Property management 10% $215 - Office/Travel/Legal 4% $84 - Mortgage 26% $552 - Monthly Cash Flow - $316 per month or $3,792 per year so Cash on Cash = 17%I think this looks like it is a deal worth doing and I also believe I can bump the total rent up by $50 each tenant which I think make it even better.
