@Aaron Bihl yes I have been in discussions with Host Financial, and they are one of the exciting options I see emerging in the lending market.

-If an investor has some money but not an emergency fund and something happens they will need their money back, screwing up the investment.#3 I would want to know why they are not using the power of leverage and only putting 20% down.- You may find out they are very very conservative with their money and if you planned to be aggressive with it that would not make a good partnership.There are so many other questions to ask but I hope this gets you thinking.  

If you borrow it now to boost your savings/emergency fund and then wait through two bank statements showing those funds ( excluding the deposit) - so 60-90 days -then you can use your savings as a down payment.

They also offer a maintenance option of $50/mo to do a complete check monthly and work on-demand for emergency calls free or at a lower rate.

We are pushing Congress to provide relief for partners like you in the following ways: Extension of Small Business Administration (SBA) emergency loans for small businesses impacted by COVID-19;Tax relief for individuals and small businesses; andInclusion in any Economic Stabilization Fund to provide loans and loan guarantees to travel-dependent businesses.

You're looking for the emerging trends in real estate.

Was it an emergency?

FYI, Nevada law requires that you have someone within 60 miles of the property, that tenants can call in case of emergency or for repairs etc.

However, this leaves us scraping the bottom of the barrel (i.e. no money left for rehab and almost nonexistent emergency fund).

I know I have the drive for this competitive market but it’s very scary working with only investor money, and not having a decent backup for emergencies.
