Forced Apperception (BRRRR or buying at a discount) allows me to build in equity from the beginning.Market Appreciation is where you will make the most money over a 10-year period but is the least predictable.You typically cant get a second position loan or HELOC from an investment property.

Are there any resources where you can put your income, purchase price, down payment and credit score and see potential rates and which lenders do it?

@Cillian KellyI never do because my rate is 3%.

Also insurance rates are cheaper in SC than FL.

The property I've set my sights on is a 9-plex where the owners are willing to carry 70% of the loan at a 5.5% rate for a $1,800,000 building.

How you proceed will depend on a few factors:- financing will depend on your exit strategy - you'll be best off if you can decided the exit plan (LTR, MTR, or STR) before buying- Since you're not employed and living on savings, what is your burn rate and your cash runway?

People's debt, tax rates and situations vary greatly. 

That is a 0.033% success rate.

I asked about costs/rate/terms and he said "6 percent" interest for 5 years.  

Have they bought the rate down?
