Hey Brandon,I had good success by getting equity lines on properties to access the cash to invest again. 20% is certainly not essential if you want to go lower there are many lending options for lower down payments, especially if you are willing to house hack!

If your property is the only one without a driveway, then yes, it may lower your ARV.One of the properties I own has a neighboring property that is the only property in the area without a backyard and without a driveway, and it is fairly lower than all the neighboring properties, although it is nearly identical in structure.

so, to recap, you need cash for: down payment + closing costs + holding costs.for a new investor, a live in flip might be a lower risk option than an outright flip. 

With this type of property you will get lower insurance prices, lower maintenance and tenants like newer properties.
