I'm keeping enough liquidity and investing my leftover capitol into real estate.

Investors  are more reluctant to make single large investments, tend to seek diversification and seek out trusted advisors and a portfolio that has more points of liquidity during times of recession.

@Brittany SnyderIf you need the money for liquidity a credit union is probably the best place.

This is an interesting strategy, but leaves all our leverage untouched... and yes the big question would be if we could live in a home/multifamily with 5% down... using the rest of our family savings... doesn't leave much liquid cash. 

Seeking a place $650-800k with 2-3 units while living in the basement.I know buying low and rehab/remodeling is the way to go but I don't have much liquid capital left after 5% down and closing costs on an FHA loan.

Clean kitchen, bathrooms are top items.3-Generate a stock of cleaning products and toilet paper, paper towels, liquid soap etc so this is easily accesible to replace.4-Use the same linens and towels have multiple sets so they can just strip beds and replace with clean sets.

I use 30 days as a rule of thumb where i have enough time to liquidate investments (stocks, bonds, mutual funds, etc).

Borrower: What does your liquidity, experience (as it relates to the subject deal), and general creditworthiness look like?

If no will exists and no legitimate heirs are found go to the state for liquidation 

But theres this one company who says I don’t need a down payment, but I need to have 20% liquid of the amount at 3.8%.
