Higher percentage down

[Taylor Wade Wirthlin]

I am new to real estate investing and I am hoping to purchase a duplex soon to house hack. My question is.. is there any benefits to putting a higher percentage down? Or is it better to put the lowest amount down and perhaps invest the rest of the money in another property?

All depends on your goals @Taylor Wade Wirthlin. A larger down payment will mean lower mortgage payments and better cash flow, but adversely affect your Cash on Cash Return. What are your goals?
