However, no-one seemed interested in offering self directed  plans for REI or comprehending the concept of REI & our Solo 401(k) as just another REI retirement niche. 

I would prefer to only do that once. 

I prefer to put a little more down for a better return and buffer, but it is a personal choice.

I do know as far as cash flow I have to get at least $100 a door , the Cash on cash I prefer to be 15% but anything under 12% I really don’t want because I can get a better return on buying more trucks in my trucking business, for this particular home they are asking 189k I would have to make a offer at 150k Just to get the 12% from he numbers. 

I have great credit (750) and over 100k in savings that i prefer to NOT have to take a lot from.

Can anyone recommend a software to do loan servicing to track monthly principle and interest payment, preferably send a monthly and annual mortgage statement?

I’m just getting into real estate and my niche right now is Wholesaling.

I would prefer to see their scores in the mid to high 7s.
