Discouragement

Getting the down payment for my first investment property is discouraging, especially when I have unexpected bills come up. I currently have 3,000 but my goal is to save atleast 10,000 (for my 20% down payment).

Keela, why not forego traditional buying strategies and try some that don't require so much of your cash? Seller financing, perhaps? Lease option? Bring in a partner?
