I've found the same when using pricing tools, but I've heard from others that it's been a game changer for their business...

I currently house hack in Chicago, however, going from that to STRs where I cannot self manage is a different ball game and just wanting to pick peoples brains who are doing what I'm interested in doing.  

Hey everyone,For those in the real estate game, how do you track your property expenses, labor, and other details during the renovation process, especially when managing multiple properties simultaneously (e.g., 3-5 houses)?

A big part of succeeding in this game is simply staying in the game.Make sure to take the lessons from this experience so it’s not in vain:•Always keep reserves.

It varies a lot depending on install method, regional area, heck even a specific properties weather exposure. 

Then you are 'in the game' so to speak.

Most agents, I can tell you from experience, will not spend too much time on you since your so fairly new and at your purchase price your not a big fish so they will tend to put you on the back burner since heir return is not going to be a game changer.

Is this for all DCSR loans or can these items vary?

Grateful to be part of this amazing community of go-getters and game-changers.

Yes it explicitly allowed things like the term and rate, and I wrote that it should exclude anything additional which is unnecessary since I couldn't be there to read the closing docs themselves (which I assume can vary depending on what the branch leader/loan officer wants for the nonconforming loan).
