OK, so a couple of things:

One - in this post I am not arguing the intrinsic value of nothing down. It happens to be how I do things, but I am not saying it's the best or most effective way for everyone. If you have a business which throws off good cash, then the best thing for you is likely to change face-value of that cash by putting it into RE.

Having said this, some of you don't, which doesn't mean that RE is out of the question. With the right skill-set you can do it.

This is a post on my site JustAskBenWhy.com which traces such a transaction. Enjoy!
