Rental rates are pretty strong too if you wanted the option to rent it out down the road.Like I told my friend in a conversation recently while we were discussing home values...

My personal opinion is owning your home outright is an amazing feeling and impressive feat.

I was interested in other people's personal stories on how they were able to attain some of their early on rental properties with no and low money down. 

I'm personally looking at the 2-4 space right now as I think there should be good opportunity there to make the numbers work in high-value markets

Other times you see a person do a single post and ghost their own post.I am in two other forums that are dead or dying.  

Even if the property is not currently on the market, it will show you a lot of info that I personally find important.

100% funding is a thing, for example, if the home is $100K to purchase and the renovation is $75K a lender can give you the full $175K however, there are two things you'll need to be aware of 1) there's an option where the closing costs and fees will be much higher, OR 2) you could give your lender a percentage of the equity of the deal (30% - 60%) for a truly zero personal investment deal.

I am thinking Des Moines may be a good place for me to start for some personal and professional reasons.
