Forced Apperception (BRRRR or buying at a discount) allows me to build in equity from the beginning of the investment in case I need to fire sale the property for an unforeseeable reason.Debt-Paydown and Tax-Benefits are just a result of owning real estate and can be more-or-less predicted over a time period.

@Shaheen Ahmed- thanks - if you plan to live in one of the units - there are conventional loans that allow as little as 5% down .....or  you can also use a FHA loan .....if you plan to not live in the property - the down payment will  vary based on the  property you buy - IF you havent already done so - get fully pre approved with a lender 

With the technology available today allowing lenders to more easily monitor deed transfers, and interest rates on new mortgages double the rates 2 years ago, I would only do a sub to transaction if I were sure funds would be available to pay off the existing mortgage should the lender decide to accelerate .  

Studies show that group training has only about a 5% success rate in buying properties, but people say they like the group atmosphere except they don't get their individual questions answered.Most "hands on”, “one on one” have the opposite, about a 90% success rate of buying properties.

.- Check up frequently on the property and conduct walk throughs as allowed by your lease agreement.- Hire a solid property manager who gets paid to keep tabs on the property for you. 

Additionally, the flexibility of renting allows residents to adapt to changing life circumstances without being tied down by a mortgage.From an investor perspective, BTR projects present an attractive opportunity to capitalize on the growing demand for rental housing in high-growth markets.
