You should be able to find a reputable investment focused broker to provide 20% down for your purchase.

They will each have about 20% NET (cash purchases) at about 60% of the ARV.   

I am looking at purchasing a property to live in for a year and then rent.

Canadian citizen want to purchase commercial land and build a strip mall.Need advice on.1.

I'm wondering if that's the same as purchase and sell contract??!!    

Purchase price: $68,000 Cash invested: $5,000 Sale price: $99,000 4 Unit quad in Medina NYRenters were tough and management company's locations are too far for a regular check up.Had a renter pass away and then DCS came in and the house was condemned due to farm animals in the upstairs unit where the person passed.We were too far to keep tabs on this investment so we sold the home.

I have been analyzing a lot of different areas in Cincinnati, Cleveland and Columbus.Hey @LeRoi De-Souza I would check out some local meet ups first and continue to do your research and build capital up for your purchase. 

Or do most people here only purchase if the cash flow is positive?? 

I just purchased a lot in a popular vacation area.

and if you purchase a property that has a mortgage on it without paying off the mortgage - that is generally called "sub to" since you're making the purchase subject to the existing mortgage.
