Initially I was planning to use a mix of cash and stocks to fund this purchase, but now having the second thoughts whether I should use  just some cash and apply to some home equity financing options instead to cover the offer amount. 

Quote from @Michael Elkins: Looking for good options to get a pre approval done in Colulmbus, Ohio Hi Michael, what type of property are you looking to purchase?

With buying a home for personal use, what are the best months of the year to purchase where the cost will be lower.

Total purchase price was $625,000 as the home was in need of some major repairs.

I also happen to be employed by my partner, I do lots of work for his property maintenance and renovations.My major concern is when I have a not so large income how can I grow outside of purchasing a property which is not very feasible at the moment.

Purchase price: $150,000Cosmetic work needed on 2 of the 4 units (paint, recaulking around tub, cleaning) Already have materials from my other investment’s project. 

i am located in Peoria IL, i purchase remotely out of state and purchased 6 doors in the last year 

Purchase price: $250,000 Sale price: $349,900 We provided a loan for a new construction project in Palm Bay, FL, with one of the biggest build booms.

@Redgy Saint-Germain I'm currently in the process of a 203k loan and my mortgage officer said they would apply the left over balance to my mortgage balance as a principle payment, but the monthly payment would stay the same.

Mortgages are a lot like tattoos: Great mortgages aren't cheap and cheap mortgages usually aren't great..or at least the process of arriving isn't.
