With anything, do your due diligence, the bitcoin market is extremely volatile

The analysis has a low offer on the listed prices to make the purchase profitable.  

FYI, if that property is 99% full, the rents are too low.

Very low interest rates and you probably get a tax credit on the interest, which brings their effective cost even lower.

We made our offer, but learned they went with a neighbor's offer, and that neighbor's agent had submitted the low price of their recent sale as a comp.

Also, in regards to negotiating a deal, I want my first offer to be low enough to allow room to negotiate up to my desired price, but I don't want to be so low as to cause offense, how much give is there when negotiating?

Just like no one advertises interest rates for low FICO scenarios, no one advertises rates that have been dinged for "small loan amount" either.

My area is certainly out the question especially because I'm more interested in cash flow than appreciation and the CAP rates here are relatively low.

That approach worked out extremely well for us, and we plan to use it heavily in future investments, especially as we move into MF properties.So my question to the BP community is this: how have you used that approach, and how has it worked out?  

The Book on Investing with No (and Low) Money Down is next on my reading list, so please don't just reiterate, however if you strongly feel that one form of getting money is better or worse than another, I will be more than happy to ready why.Cheers,Kelsey
