@Nick C.Because when someone is serious about transforming their life, and they constantly hear the marketplace is full of scammers, they decide to sit out and miss an opportunity.The other problem is that most people don't put in the work to achieve the results.

Everything is fine until there are issues and then it's just a headache and distraction from our general contracting business here in Chicago.

I am based in NJ but I feel nothing will cash flow or be too sustainable unless I put in a higher downpayment.I am looking to do only long term rentals and keep it with Multi-family units in the beginning and then advance to appreciation type properties in developing areas.I was thinking if I should save up more money for a larger down payment or possibly look at a different area to invest since I am NJ and the high property taxes make this hard unless more capital is put down.

I'll surely think of funny things to put in there.

For instance you won't put in a garbage disposal, or you only put in vinyl flooring instead of carpet ect...?

There are animals on the walls everywhere and it is very distracting. 

That would include not only what you put in your pocket but also mortgage pay-down (principle). 2.

We did sell a couple of the duplexes which werent worth the energy we were having to put in.

@Leslie Hsiung   you might listen to and watch the https://replaceyourmortgage.com/   I think it will give you all the answers you need to know and it also has calculators to put in the info you are talking about in your previous post.  

Meaning I put in my pocket the 20%?
