Buyers agents run around showing homes usually listed on a MLS. 

Is it true as I have read and taken CE classes on that you want to put the minimum down payment required because your cash on cash return is higher and write-offs are better and you can use the extra money for other projects rather than paying cash for a property?  

It's probably not worth the extra percentage if you don't have correct time horizon to recover in case you lose the principal.

Interest rate is usually 4-5% but sometimes higher.

Most homeowners I know could use an extra $60,000+ in their pocket!

In the past as a tenant, I've always considered landlord interactions awkward so now that I am on the other side, I avoid those "extra" efforts .

Your best bet is usually to use whichever ACH platform your software supports.  

Usually properties that bring in a lower rent also have less overhead when it comes to upkeep i.e. no HOA's, the property is smaller in general so repair costs are less, and so on. you really need to look at the overall investment and factor everything in because in my opinion rental price is just one aspect.

Hi @Robin CoxIt depends but usually if a city buys up houses, they want a development in the area.

I agree with Tom on #1 & #2 but as far as #3 it depends if the seller reports to the credit bureaus, which they usually don't.
