You could even go to the pro desk at your local hardware store and ask if they know a guy who does X.

Those are less liquid and less control. 

My question is whether it makes more sense to put 10% down so that I can have more liquid cash to use for stocks/bonds/HYSA or if it would be better to put 20% down to get more cash flow/lower mortgage.

How much liquidity do you have to cover the cash flow deficit?    

(Keep in mind that a lot can happen in the 4 years it takes before one can apply for the tax deed and these properties had to be real dogs in order to not be bid on by investors)  They had no exit strategy and almost all of the homes ended up with code enforcement lie and some of the homes ended up being demolished before we got to them.We ended up taking a contract on 185 properties around FL and have succeeded in getting these homes off of their books but for pennies on the dollar and are now their exclusive liquidation arm, but had we not come around, they would have ended up losing everything on those homes. 

It was an old convenient store with gas pumps.

The logic is that at a wall lots of items can be stored against it so there is more fuel.

I was so emotional and just wanting to liquidate his entire estate as quickly as possible that I just didn't think I was up to the challenge of rehabbing a 60 year old house that needed massive repairs to the tune of $100,000 or so.I had the cash and the house was totally paid off but,I just didn't have the courage to deal with contractors that would see a goof like me coming and take me to school.No one around me encouraged me to seek out advice and help from experienced investors and just told me to sell it and be grateful.I threw away a house that would have been worth $500,000 after rehab and fully paid off!!!!

The initial equity split is 80/20 meaning that 80% of the equity capital needed was paid for by the limited partners and the sponsor put in the remaining 20% of capital.In years 1-4 the sponsor paid all members an 8% preferred rate of return and in year 5 paid back all of their principal through a liquidation event.
