This is a great forum to discuss the creative side of acquiring property!  

I am in the early development stages of acquiring properties north of Pittsburgh.  

I am curious to see some opinions/strategies on how real estate investors can acquire property after property without constantly putting down 20% or a way to draw equity from one property to purchase another.

How did you acquire the house?

If you don't need the cash flow now,  I would buy two $100,000 properties or possibly look at putting down 35 to 50% down and acquiring 4 properties utilizing private financing.  

It depends on you business plan for the properties you wish to acquire.

I always use the property address as Llc name so I don't have to get creative with every property I acquire.

James- How did the Sherriff sale go or any other properties you acquired from sherriff sale.

You can acquire one or more replacement properties as long as the total value is equal to or greater than the  net sale price (not gain, profit or equity). 

I'd like to acquire another property by the end of the year in the $150k price point.
