It comes down to your overall investment strategy. You can fix and refi to recapture on a portion of the money put down and roll into other assets or leverage your skills with others to target properties where maybe they can brings funds while you provide credit or ability to do the ground work.

Hi, We have purchased 2 rental properties in Illinois and have put 25% down on each. Where can we borrow money and lower our down payment? We want to continue to purchase but at this rate it will be difficult. Thanks in advance for your advice. Susan

@Steve Rugg Multifamily is all about team and economies of scale. The larger you go the more each play in your favor. Your breakout now still isn’t enough for full time staff but close and depending on proximity you may be able to have a staff work on all properties.

@John Blanton I just sold a syndication 4 years early because we crushed our returns, double expected IRR in two years for what we expected in year 6. That said it was also because a great comp went on market and sold and I didn't feel in four years I would have another. Also with the market how it is I had to look at both sides of what would be downside to hold and that was a lot heavier than selling now. I am putting another property for sale now too with same variables. Hard part is there is limited options to move into
