If you can come up with an extra 1.5% and finance with a conventional loan you have none of those downsides, a lower monthly payment and PMI only until you hit 20% equity

I've heard stories on the podcast of financing 75% conventionally through the bank and basically doing seller financing on the down payment, so 25% to them.

I have 9 loans currently so looking to do a conventional loan on my next depending on that process.

If you buy in your name you can buy them with conventional loans as long as you qualify which have better loan termsIf it makes any difference and will better guide your answers, we live in Ohio.Nice.

I could care less if someone smokes marijuana but worried it might impact other tenants & future renters.What are my options, if any?

Investors at this time should be extra careful

Due to the creativity of the deal conventional funding is not an option.

We care about our investors' success, but it's ultimately up to each investor to take action to accomplish their goals however they do it!

Im not an SEC attorney but I would think you would have to be careful doing this.  

It all depends on the market and if tenants actually care about having a new sidewalk and walkway.
