You can be a crook, an incompetent investor, AND purchase bad investments, all at the same time!

If these have the 2 position's to make up the puchase price, how can I use BiggerPocket's in finding the 2 lender's to satisfy each position to purchase the cash flowing property?

I know that generally 20% down is required when purchasing an investment property.  

As far as purchasing leads, I don't know a reliable source. 

They need to speak with a lender who can pull their current entitlement charged for the current loan, and then they need to tell the lender what County they want to buy in and how much of a home and downpayment they plan to purchase.  

There are a few things to keep in mind when purchasing a secondary home.

@Ramiro De Leon Congrats on taking the first step of saving up money and preparing yourself for your first purchase!

Purchase a smaller multifamily that you can get into for $1.5-$2.5mm.

Hi BP,I'm looking to purchase my first property in Los Angeles and wanted to see if anyone has or knows of anything that might be a good fit.

I take it to mean you have someone willing to invest money into an entity you own as an unsecured note at 5% interest plus a cash flow participation on property you purchase?
