In order to make it in today's market you'd definititely need to "buy some cashflow" (higher downpayment) targetting  the right SFH that sits dead center in the sweet spot that families are looking for. 

Sweet spot seems to be 40-80 units.

Here are some words from our Sweet Home Chicago.

Short and sweet. 

To this point we've focused on X number of doors to get to a specific cash flow number in order for me to have the option of walking away from my W-2... specific challenges have just been*finding that sweet spot of property and location and getting the bad inherited tenants out *getting improvements done that needs to be done.

Tad bit annoying but on the other token often times they are sweet and nice then other times we have bumped heads.

(Government qualifications requirement)Unfortunately it took away 20% of Canadians buying power and hopes of ownership  which is kind of bitter / sweet situation. 

Sweet, I knew 70% was a basic rule of thumb.

Sweet!
