I wouldn't call $500,000 cheap - I use sub $200,000 as my parameter for "cheap" and if I'm not in a severely negative cash flow (-$100 to -$150 at most for first 2 years at current interest rates) but it's hard to tell since I can't predict precisely how many tenant turnovers, capital expenses, how much my property taxes/insurance will go up, repairs I would have on a renovated Class C Midwest property that's 100 years old over 10 year time span.

I am thinking that I would find out precisely how each lender wants to see the loan package put together, and guide my buyer in doing so.

But this is precisely why real estate has evolved to become the team sport that it is today.

Thanks a lot for explaining so precisely! 

This is precisely the kind of answer I was hoping for.

If you are looking for more precise data based on Federal Government census from state to state city to city, I have found green street advisors (greenstreetadvisors.com) to be extremely helpful.

Investors putting 30%-35% down on a property is precisely what the Federal Reserve wants - to slow the velocity of capital. 

I do not know any other market besides Midwest, Kansas City MO, to be precise.

I like when newbie "trust" someone in the world promising 'em 43k in two years without lifting finger.this is the precisely why people losing money very fast.

I am not really sure what your precise question is.
