You will be responsible for 25% of the mortgage and thus will allow you save faster to obtain a second property.  

I completely agree, was mostly asking if these newer websites offer a faster or better process then checking records or hiring a title company. thanks! 

I've wanted a ratio of faster cash flow (60% of portfolio goal) + more appreciation (40% of portfolio goal) and have been stuck on the "how do I find partners to help with capital down payments/investments?"

I've been buying and holding for SFH's rentals for 15+ years, but my goals now are Cash flow (70%) and Appreciation/Equity (30%) so I can invest faster/grow more in shorter periods of time.I ran this: View report on BP as a really rough test for investing in this property (3-plex, but also offers an attached 3-plex for consideration). 

Duplexes: Single-family homes (SFHs) can appreciate faster in certain markets, but duplexes provide the benefit of immediate rental income from both units.

If the market appreciates, you may experience liquidity events after 5-10 years that will help build your wealth faster compared to investing in cash-flowing properties in less expensive markets.

Once you’ve built enough equity, refinance and pull cash out to acquire more properties.Leverage Knowledge: Learn about tax benefits, depreciation, and using LLCs to protect your assets as you grow your portfolio.If I were your age, I would’ve networked more with real estate investors early on and diversified faster.

In your experience, do higher-quality videos result in faster sales or better offers, or are they more about building long-term brand recognition?

Forced appreciation fast tracks the journey allowing you to buy more faster. 

I like faster growth, land locked markets with premiums.
