Financing is not typical-most people pay cash for them. 

I bought 2 of the 3 with cash directly from the sellers.

Quote from @Andrew Boston: Hi Bigger Pockets Fam,I paid cash for a home March 2024 that was uninhabitable and am just now getting around to rehabbing the property.

Purchase price: $293,000 Cash invested: $293,000 A location that has potential to develop into a residential super power with excellent road connectivity to the rest of the city.

Start by analyzing cash flow and market demand for each property to decide which one to rent out.

I have invested $0 since I cashed out 2 times.

I threw it into the cash flow calculator and it said it would either even out or it willl have a monthly cash flow of around 300$.
