You can also try and incorporate a seller concession of up to 3% (with 3.5% down) which can help cover closing costs and reduce the cash needed to close.

Here are a few ideas:- HELOC: depending on how much equity you have in your property, you may be able to apply for and borrow against that equity- DSCR: BP now has a find a lender link and I'm happy to recommend mine as well if you'd like; there are lenders who do loans based on the future rental value of the property- Borrow from your 401k: typically you're able to borrow up to $50k and if you have multiple 401ks, borrow from multiplesHopefully this gives you some ideas of other options to bring in some cash for your investment!

Once the property is rehabbed, you can refinance into a DSCR loan with no seasoning requirements.I'll let some of the traditional mortgage brokers chime in, but traditional financing might require a 12-month waiting period to pull your cash back out.

Are you referencing cash on cash return?

I have about $300 on my credit cards (just finally paid them off for the most part, and have about $20,000 limit).My cash on hand is relatively light, but what my plan was was to find some single family homes in the north Detroit area (currently anywhere from $40-$60k and put about $15-20k tops into any repairs or fixes (not looking for total rehabs, mostly something I can do some small repairs here and there and paint, personally I am knowledgeable about renovating up until complex electric and plumbing).

I paid 160K cash for that one, spent about 30k again and have it rented for $1,895/mo. 

Are you looking for cash flow, safe neighborhood or bringing a property out of the abyss to perfection?  

Purchase price: $12,500 Cash invested: $130,000 Sale price: $204,900 Purchased home and completed a complete renovation of the property.

I will add we took out a loan to buy the home for 20k along with extra cash to put into our home to make a "home office" out of the attached garage we never used except for storage so we added even more value to our 156k purchase.
