Caused me a great deal of anxiety and stress scampering last minute to secure the deal. 

It's been horrible and will be losing out on 4 properties and thousands of dollars in inspections and appraisals, not to mention the anxiety and hours spent dealing with them.  

All said and done it was about 30 minutes of my time, and a little anxiety for a few minutes. 

And your anxiety level is not a factor to totally disregard.Anyway, it's good to know all the strategies, so everyone above has broken the leverage idea down really well.

To ease my anxiety, I went to check out their Facebook profile again (I did this prior to approving) but was looking more closely. 

@Fred Bornholdt My experience with reducing anxiety about any subject is to try and learn more about it.

A lot of these people peddle fear and anxiety because they know that takes like that DO in fact get more traction with views/clicks/listeners.

A side from the normal amount of anxiety this is part of the process I know the least about.

It seems to me that the corno anxiety has gone way down since last April, people just deal with it now.

The property is in a total working-class Hispanic area and my 10-year calculations based on my worse-case numbers is I will earn including cashflow, rent increases and appreciation no less than $147,000 per year and if things go well we will earn close to $2 million or $200,000 per year for 10 years.My point about telling about my recent purchase is; if you want to make the most-profitable investments then don't let anxiety block success.
