If you want to purchase an investment property with no money down, you would most likely need bank financing which may be 80%, and then bring an investor on to give the 20% (these %'s can change but this is to give you an idea.

Thanks @Thomas S., you hit the nail on the head.

You asked if the #’s makes sense, and you need to be heeding the advice of these folks who are telling you no.  

's   The Holy Grail Blog posts, I believe it's the best thing I can do with my money right now.

I do agree w/ @Aman S. on variables to consider and believe that metering of units is a big factor in pricing becuase of the ability to minimize variability in your expenses. 

These loans can have as little as 0-5% down payment requirements, so you can stretch that fledgling war-chest as far as possible.Honestly I tend to agree with @Benjamin Seibert and @Thomas S., recommending that you keep practicing your underwriting while aggressively building up your war-chest.

@Rohit S Bora What did you decide to do with the property?

Chances are, out of all the 1000's of home for sale this year in Austin, the one next probably isn't the best deal.
