Quote from @Wesley W.: I would always prefer to leave a unit vacant (even for an extended period of time) rather than place a suboptimal tenant, especially here in NY.In the Socialist Republic of New York, there are very few means left for landlords to use with prospects that are less than perfect with regards to screening criteria. 

My situation is as follows.60k annual income25k available to put downonly debt is my car at $250 p/monthExcellent credit score Would like to see if there is any other conventional loan options that would allow a lower percentage down in order to maximize on what i have at the moment.Am currently working with a local agent to find a duplex as a first investment property in the northern Madison, WI area.I am completely new to real estate and have been doing tons of reading here on BP.

Milwaukee is probably still one of the better markets, but getting 20k discount for a property that needs 50k of work does not make much sense.
