So be prepared to paint and clean or replace carpet when they move out.If you go into it with the right expectations, I think you will be fine!

But, those areas get this more often and are obviously better prepared.

The time expended to prepare the data from receipts, accounting records or other would be the same whether the data was to be used in a relational model or a big data model because I imagine that much of this data is not in digital form already.Big Data would come into play if you had a massive volume of data that you might want to analyze from various sources that would be too large for a relational model and or the rate of change/growth for such data was very high such that a relational model could not keep up (not going to mention Data Warehousing as that is not going to be cost effective for you).

If all the banks say no, there are other options: hard money, private money, creative financing, owner finance, Etc.

I am in the position to pay cash for one property in this price range but realize that wouldn't allow my money to be working as hard as it could compared to leveraging the bank's/lender's money.The Question: To those creative and experienced out there, I feel there might be a solution to my goals in buying my first investment property in cash.

If you guys have any creative ways or better ideas on how to go about purchasing this property I would love to hear feedback.

If you are talking about paying $50k, for a property that is worth $100k, that are some creative ways to do that,,,if your talking about $85k on a $100k valuation,,,you won't be pulling any money out anytime soon.Mortgages on investment properties are typically 75% of the appraised value (again, on investment property, not your personal residence).A couple of years ago you could work something like that if you found a super deal,,end up pulling cash out,,unless your market is a LOT less competitive than Dallas,,your not going to be paying 60% of appraised value (unless it needs rehab, but then you have to add that cost in)

Do I need to find an investor friendly mortgage company here in Indy that deals with creative financing and deals of this nature?

Sometimes the winner was just gave a little more effort or was a little more creative.

Thanks for the creative idea!
