And, if and when you attain that, you can easily get fired at any moment (I've seen it countless times as executives get into their 40's) and then you're down to zero income overnight (with a hard time finding a new gig).

20% down is a pipe dream.In low interest rate environments before with cap rate at 5.0 and debt at 3.5% with DSCR ratios still looking at 30 to 35% down.Now because cap rate maybe in 6's and debt in 5's for credit grade BBB- or better tenant making down payment about 40% or more down.20% down not happening on these.I don't want to comment further because you are looking for a miracle.
