What’s required for success in this is deep knowledge of real estate in general and the area in particular; experience in real estate and the local laws, etc.; and capital to pay for options, marketing, legal counsel, accounting, tax advise, etc.  

Also start talking to lenders now to understand their requirements 

Are there any loans out there that require less than 10% down?

The purchase and sale of a business requires a lot more personal involvement than the purchase and sale of real property.  

Because Zelle requires more data entry I would explain with the new lease there will be a small and reasonable processing fee if the tenant kept with zelle but they can still use it.

May require some patience, but trust me, this stuff is not easy for some people to follow... 

I know there is not a ton of resources that don't require large financial commitments, just wanted to see if anybody knew of cheaper alternatives. 

If you can qualify for conventional cash out refinancing, most lenders do not have a minimum loan amount requirement.

In my experience in MO, land bank properties are very low priced (these are generally properties/parcels that weren't sold at the tax auction), but they often have significant tax liens on them that must be cleared in addition to the "sale price" AND they require a significant amount of rehab in order for the properties to be inhabitable. 

If you're an accredited investor able to meet the minimum commitment amount required by the fund, I have to imagine you have access to opportunities that are more favorable to you as an LP.
