Is a *$100,000 rental property* ever worth it? We see so many markets across the country that sport cheap rental properties. But, are you really just buying a problem that will never truly cash flow, or do these dirt-cheap deal-finders know something that we don’t?

We’re back, as *Dave and Henry answer your questions* from the BiggerPockets Forums. First, we’re talking about cheap rental properties—$100K or less—and when Henry will and won’t buy them. *How much money should you put down* on a rental property? One investor has a different idea than the standard 20%-25% down, and Dave agrees—if you want more cash flow, less stress, and a more stable portfolio.

Is flipping…moral? Concerned homebuyers say house flippers are taking inventory off the market, and Henry…thinks they have a point (to some extent).

Finally, after years of working with hard money lenders, *Henry shares (more like yells) some choice words* at any lenders listening on how to make the industry suck a little less.
