This may be the most motivated you ever find a owner, as they usually know they are out of options.That said, Account Closed is absolutely right that it's still complicated.

I can probably put down up to $20k, but I like having a little more liquid assets in the bank since almost every time I've received orders to move, I've had less than a month's notice and there are quite a bit of expenses in moving...However, since I'm "guaranteed" to be in NY for two years, I think I can afford to keep less money in my checking/savings accounts and put down a large down payment.

Hey there,I've been searching properties in the upstate of South Carolina for several weeks now (and I feel somewhat dumb for even posting this to begin with because I actually own a few rentals and I'm slightly terrified come tax time next year), and apparently I've been running my tax numbers all wrong and not accounting for the 6% non-owner occupant rate.Am I completely missing something or does this seem to kill virtually every deal out there??

It typically arrives in your account 72hours later.  

And having 3 months mortgage payment in a shareable account.
