Study the market.

Can they prove how long it takes to rent a vacant property?

I'm a 2x house hacker here in LA (a case study in the BP book The House Hacking Strategy) and an out of state investor.

As I studied earlier, the first thing you should do is marketing, then get a call and do a property analysis to understand if it's profitable for you, then meet with the seller and sign all the necessary papers, then if there is a debt in the bank we do a reinstatement quote, then do a title search to check if there are any hidden debts, if everything is fine we look for an investor or flipper and sign an assignment of contract with him and wait for closing to get our money.

Time for you to prove YOUR case.

@Melanie P.1) The caseworker is supposed to approve all HAP contract amounts, but otherwise, who is realistically going to take the time to investigate and how are they going to prove it?

Here's a link to both of their PadSplit stories:Jeff: https://www.padsplit.com/host-resources/case-studies/jeff-we...Fernando: https://www.padsplit.com/stories/hosts/fernando-and-amaris-c...Quote from @Bob Willis: I am interested in talking to someone about the process of funding via DSCR the acquisition of a property currently being run as a PadSplit.

Study the market.

In a service business like property management, your contributions can go unseen at times - so I feel as though value is harder to recognize, so you need to really exceed expectation in order to prove this value!

I would study AvantStay and some of their properties in your area or NC generally.
