People stop paying rent, emergencies happen, people go to jail, and the list goes on and on.

Some people try to do it themselves and they miss things.

More than anything, I imagine it's a game rooted in persistence and casting a wide net.

This place was a mess but its now a charming home that people love and it cashflows super well!

I would also say that they tweak their program annually, so some of the things people described from past experience is no longer accurate.

That being said, I have heard many stories where people have gotten out of this for various reasons.

Would love feedback/further ideas of what people are seeing or hoping for:What's Next in DSCR?

Since you're a realtor it won't cost you much to list it, and people will pay a lot of money to get a low rate with a higher amount going to the principal than initially.

You can also leverage existing relationships - perhaps your agent/contractors can connect you with people you are looking for.

Build a team of people to help; an agent who isn't trying to talk you into every opportunity and knows how to analyze a deal; a lender who offers you all the possibilities; an inspection company that can get things done quickly; finally a property management company that comes with good referrals.
