If you are buying something that's stabilized, then look a doing a 3% conventional.

Although this past weekend on one of my listings, we had a buyer come in with a conventional loan (yep, conventional) at 0% down.

I want to use the BRRRR strategy but I plan on doing a couple conventional investments to build up experience before I bring in a private lender.
