@Luke Hamlin you can buy a second home with 10% down with a Conventional loan.

We have an LOI accepted on a property where the seller is going to carry roughly half of the 25% down payment.

When I inquired about it, plumber said lining, it is usually not prefect since this is PVC breakage not just pipe cracks and the cost saving is not significant enough and maybe headache down the road.I will try to get more quotes and maybe a company that specializes in pipe lining options.I was told foundation work / under slab pipe repair is common in the Dallas TX area due to soil type.

Minimum of 25% down is required 5.

You may have to put more money down (10-15%), but you can close, in a LLC, with no worries about banks.

I know many of these services seem shady, but once you vet them out you'll find someone legitimate that can give you the full run down.

Many of these areas also benefit from both rising home values and increasing rents.Ultimately, successful investing comes down to selecting a growing market, a strong neighborhood, and building a reliable team to support you.

We're an appreciation market, not as much of a cash flow market here, unless you're putting a large down payment or actively managing STR's.Buying out-of-state can get you more cash flow, but the tradeoff is less appreciation (usually), and cash flow can be eaten up by maintenance and expenses.

Concentrate on your development cost and keeping them down and the deal will pencil.

The amount of cash flow on a home will of course be contingent on the down payment.
