I'm looking at MFH $450k and up in the Ohio markets (Dayton, Cleveland and Columbus).Cash:- Higher CoC returns- No risk to being having negative cash flow with a loan (excluding capex)- Buying/negotiating power with speed of transaction - No interest payments- No risk of foreclosureFinanced:- Possible exponential equity growth - Growth of initial investment is leveraged ~4x and most likely beat inflation in a decent area- Mortgage interest tax deductions - Better financial efficiency from more doors- Better diversification across more properties Are there other considerations I'm missing?

Essentially, you have to spend your own money and complete work on the property prior to reimbursing yourself out of the escrowed rehab budget.The draw process typically takes 5-7 days from initial request, to scheduling an inspection, and finally for the lender to wire those funds to you after your work is confirmed by the inspector.

Initially we were thinking about "What do we need right now?"

Some banks might require a cash portion to your initial investment.  

Hey Ximei,I totally understand wanting to maximize the impact of your initial investment, and if you're open to taking on a bit more complexity, the BRRRR route can be a game changer.
