Currently, I seem a couple deals a week.Some random comments about MF (which are worth what you are paying for them): * I have attempted to create a "MF Ladder", similar to a bond ladder that old folks used to have. 

You mentioned generating income, but I’m not sure that you’re better off investing in stocks, bonds and REITs.

This could free up some capital that you might use for other investments or to strengthen your financial position.Down Payment Consideration: While putting down 50% can indeed provide positive cash flow and reduce interest costs, it's worth exploring other financing options.

They have a strong bond and enjoy the fruits of their collective achievements.

Their costs of doing business are much higher....think about it - The Licensing fees, Liability insurance and Bond alone cost significant money.

If you aren't familiar, your expected return, aka discount rate, is determined by three areas; 1) risk-free rate (aka 10-year treasury bond) + operational risk (aka political, tenant credit quality, state, location, etc.) + liquidity risk (aka are you going to sell it?

I could be wrong, but my research has shared that the experienced investors are taking action right now and investing into these deals and getting their cash out of equities and bonds.

Due to the next global economic downturn getting closer; my main focus this year and next will be within international property bonds, wine, bridging deals.

@Stuart Udis Depending upon the state, you can go after their bond as well.

Texas has a lot to offer, and I truly believe it is a great state that will continue to strengthen.
