For example, Tenant B doesn't pay their share of rent, so Tenant A pays the entire amount to avoid late fees or an eviction. now Tenant B is forced to go after Tenant B and you may not find out until months later.

This means the lender wants you to wait a certain amount of time before they will lend.

How much would you be putting down, amount of seller 2nd, and amount of 1st lien you'd need?

That’s a fairly excessive amount of pets if you ask me! 

Now the rental reference the tenant gave on the application the lady's name was that of the man who owns the house wife who also gave yet another amount they pay for rent at their current residence. 

In my view one of the biggest risks in the case of a downturn is the amount of leveraging.

I also have a lender in the 7%-9%-range for commercial properties where they don't look at income or taxes and frankly don't care about the cash-flow if the loan amount is under $500k.Some will have balloon payments, others won't.

Seller needed "x" amount to sign over and walk away.

However, it occurred to me that once you reach a certain number of properties then the standard amounts don't apply. ( 3-10% vacancy, 5-15% repairs Etc ) For instance if we own 10 properties then the chances that all of them will be vacant at the same time would be slim.
