Even being Sec8, they pay on time for their portion and the city pays the rest on time as well.  

The tenant pays the rest and not a penny more can be collected from the tenant.

Hello BP community,I am currently trying to figure the best way to purchase my first investment property.It is going to be a single family home.I'm curious of how investors usually finance this type of property.Do you usually always put 20 percent down and finance the rest ?

To buy a house I am going to put 20% cash and the rest I am going to get a mortgage.

Once you're done with the calls you can go about enjoying the rest of your day without thinking about it.  

it's really difficult to tell you every single thing that i look at. i have lots of experience so i can just make offers based on the listing pictures. even if it's just a single picture of the front of the house. that's cause i buy similar houses and know about how much it would cost. but i have a lot of experience, so nothing phases us.in addition, when you have a checklist, the agent will know you are not experienced and will question your ability to close. big things are - kitchen, bath, electrical, roof, concrete.the rest is child's play.good luck.

Which is why I thought about using a HML to get me the rest of the way.

Having allowed this to sink in, my mind is at ease and I know exactly how I want to live the rest of my life.

@Andrew Alvarez It all depends on the rest of the criteria!

If you have time please send me a message and let me know what features you are looking for and I can give you an idea of what we are planning for the rest of the year.
