Long story short is I want to buy a multi family home 4 family would be ideal but a duplex will be sufficient if I can find the right deal, for my first property in NJ I would love to see 1k a month positive cash flow, I am looking to take a investment property loan and put down 25% and upon research I'm seeing hat I need 2 years property management experience in order to use rental income to qualify, while I don't personally own any investment properties both my mother and father own several units which I am 100% a part of helping manage and repair when needed.

I wouldn't recommend anything less than 20% down so you have enough equity and cash-flow to handle a market down-turn, vacancies, etc.4.

Let's say you could buy a turnkey property for a market value $67k that cash flows at $400 a month after all expenses.

It is in a desirable neighborhood and according to comps, has the ability to generate positive cash flow.

There aren't a lot of duplex here that are like that , it's strange I don't really know the reason why But they cash flow great I have 2 but there both apartments style vs traditional.

Looking to get into REI for the cash flow to diversify my income streams and get to financial independence quicker.

Hi All-If an investor follows the rules of thumb that bigger pockets lays out (2% rule, etc) you can ASSUME  that there is a large enough cash flow cushion to absorb any risks in the property.

What kind of cash flow could I make from something like this?

Condos are generally horrible cash flow investments.

So I am not one to brag, but I always see people posting about how to invest with no money. I have been flipping in Austin and San Antonio for a while, and what I'm here to tell you is maybe you can or maybe you can't...
