What would be a safe percentage of a down payment for a new property.  

With GlobiFlow you could probably do it by pulling in all the different contact items based on a reference, then storing the email addresses in a variable.  

Whatever bank you go with would require an appraisal most likely and they would probably loan up to a certain percentage of that appraised value.

If not I don't think it would be fair to a partner that had 20 years of experience to go 50/50 so that you can get a free education and 50% of profits.Maybe you should offer your commitment and hard work for a small percentage.  

Again, it is only the improved value, so you must take the percentage of improved value from either a property appraisal you had completed, or from your taxes, and apply that to your purchase price.2. 

Also determine building expenses (taxes, insurance, utilities, and VERY CONSERVATIVE MAINTENANCE/VACANCY/CAP EXPENDITURE PERCENTAGES!)

They think negotiating small percentages on properties and seldom coming to terms is a wise move.  

I know the basics in real estate investing and most of the guys on BP sound like they know all the business percentages and terms for dealing in properties.

@Lauren Lusby...I was under the impression that Hard Money landers ad set interest rates across the board and that the only variables were the ARVs' % vs the actual money being borrowed.

Water/ sewer/ garbage is about the same cost for a 500 square foot unit as it is for a 3,500 square foot house, so utilities become a bigger percentage of total rent and costs with smaller units.Collecting rent is time consuming.
