If you can save up in a reasonable time frame, I would use cash. 

Then I went on to do it again, and rented out that other unit, THEN giving me cash flow.

I plan to purchase it in cash and repair the foundation.

Be 1-1.33 DSCR, ideally 1.2 ish range with capex as a top line not bottom line item. 50% net cash flow= reserves, 50% net cash flow= investment #2.
