Once you've found your market, it's time to find financing.

Have you considered seller financing?

It will greatly improve your finances day-to-day. 

I'm very intrigued by a property that is in a great neighborhood and will appreciate very strongly, but using any sort of financing on it the cash flow return is deep in the negatives for a couple years even though the ask price looks like a good deal compared to other houses around.

I was looking for some advice (viable target area, financing options and credible PM/realtor contacts) from the experts here though especially if you are in a similar boat as mine (reside in Canada/Ontario area and invest in US).Thanks much, in advance! 

Person B is the money-partner - will put up 100% of cash for the deal (ie. no financing).

This builds equity while offsetting housing costs and how I started my real estate journey - house hacking.My advice would be to run the numbers on both scenarios, factoring in real estate goals, finances, and family needs.

I’m researching my finance options and studying the market.  

In diligence, compare the prior annual revenue to the reality of electrical usage (come up with a constant of power cost per day per occupied space and then take the actual power bill and see roughly how many occupied units you have).Much of RV park and mobile home park is 100% overlap: how to find them, negotiate them, do diligence on them, renegotiate them, finance them, turn them around and operate them.

I've thought about buying on the high end of what I could afford (in highly desirable areas) in the hopes the property values will climb.Should I forgo financing entirely and buy something "cheap" that I can pay in cash or take a minimal mortgage on?
