I am entertaining making some cash purchases and then refinancing cash out leaving 20-25% in the properties.What I was hoping to learn more about would be people's experiences with making cash purchases for several properties. 

After that, I kept my expenses lower than my income, reduced my workload to human levels, took many small trips, several large trips and cared for my grandparents until their passing. 

I am considering buying a rental in the county.Since the water and sewer bills are associated with the taxes at the year end , is there any way of passing these costs to the tenant (is it possible to get a periodical reading for both???)

Perhaps the owner has passed on?

I studied and passed.

I'd take a pass on the deal and slow down a bit. 

Our team of three passed the analysis paralysis stage months ago and these last two months we've been doing direct mail and now we're using skip trace to cold call tax delinquent leads that we've retrieved from LA county.

Most banks that loan on rental properties will loan up to $250k to someone for purchasing rentals before they pass you along to another bank.$50k purchase price20% Down = $10,000Find the right bank and you can finance the purchase and renovation of 5 properties with your $50k.I know a few people say $50k rental isn't worth having.
