Personally I don't like to do less than 20%. 

It's been interesting, because lately a number of people have had this exact problem and we've been discussing it on this forum and personally with others we know. 

Taking a bit over a long period of time is better than taking it out all out at once.Furthermore, you can have 80% LTV if you purchase property in your personal in your own name.LTV inside of a SDIRA is somewhere around 50%

Ask the person lending you the money.Banks won't care.

The title company says it would need a satisfactory quiet title action and a couple of other factors that would be part of the QTA.I certainly can't be the first person to attempt to clear a title in New York and would love to get input from someone who has done so.Thanks in advance...

I think it's better for for sale product not rentals personally.

Personally I'd think more about quality of life you are looking for and if that market fits into your overall investing goals.

Personally I prefer areas where it is not "block by block" like northeast philly, roxborough, chestnut hill, west mount airy, east falls, fairmount, graduate hospital, etc. 

Maximum 10 total properties (not 10 financed properties like fannie/freddie 1-4 unit properties, so even if the properties are free and clear it counts against this 10 "properties," whether there is debt/liens against them or not)You can use 1 year tax returns for self employment and 1 year tax returns for rental property income calculations as well which is huge for BP folks since most of us are rental property investors and self employed/S-corp/schedule C personal tax returns@Matthew Kwan @Carlos Valencia @Joe Homs

If a person cannot afford to make their taxes and insurance payments on a monthly schedule, how would they have the personal discipline to set it aside for yearly lump payments?
