You're welcome. I bought my first house with PMI and only had $6k to spare to fix it up so I could rent it out. I did it, but it wasn't easy. I should probably add that I bought this first house (1988) in a more affordable area than where I actually lived. I had some crazy idea that I could commute it, but that idea died quickly. After fixing it up on a shoestring, I decided to keep my cheap, rent-controlled apartment (with a roommate) and rent out the house. I wanted a house badly enough to pay PMI (DP was just slightly below 20%). In hindsight, I should have borrowed enough to avoid it, but 1. Pride and 2. At least it was cheap.
In the end I did fine (it was my next one that was 50% of net, but I make a killing on it), but it's stress one really doesn't need.
I am FIRE because of RE, however, had jlcollinsnh been around back then, I might have dumped it all in cheap-ass ETFs and come out ahead.
