I've included an example below to help illustrate this.So different lenders have different rates (which do vary even for DSCR loans) but these are factors they all consider.See example below:DSCR < 1Principal + Interest = $1,700Taxes = $350, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $50Total PITIA = $2200Rent = $2000DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2000/2200 = 0.91Since the DSCR is 0.91, we know the expenses are greater than the income of the property.DSCR >1Principal + Interest = $1,500Taxes = $250, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $25Total PITIA = $1875 Rent = $2300DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2300/1875 = 1.23If a purchase, you also generally need reserves / savings to show you have 3-6 month payments of PITIA (principal / interest (mortgage payment), property taxes and insurance and HOA (if applicable).

There will always be some uncontrollable variables because you’re dealing with both the human element with renters and houses are basically living creatures themselves and it’s not always possible to predict when big expenses will arise.

You could charge access fees or offer day passes for off-road adventures.Lease for Cell Towers: If the location is right, telecommunications companies might be interested in leasing a small portion of your land to install a cell tower.Event Space: If you can make it picturesque or add basic amenities, the land could be rented out for events such as weddings, retreats, or festivals.

A few things to keep in mind:Section 8 requires the property to pass an inspection based on HUD’s Housing Quality Standards (basically making sure it’s safe and well-maintained).The rent you charge has to align with Fair Market Rents (FMRs) in your area, so it’s good to check what similar properties are renting for.You’ll still be responsible for maintaining the property, but the upside is that a chunk of the rent is guaranteed by the government, which can provide steady income.Check with the local housing authority about any specifics for your area—every jurisdiction does things a little differently.This could be a great niche if you can find a good deal on the land and make sure your expenses (like maintenance, insurance, and occasional vacancies) are covered by the rental income.

Basically, it's his 3-day, in-person teaching put into an online format with mentorship from Scott and group connections, so we'll see...

I am trying to manage the asset and the property managers.Here is the basic functionality I'm looking for: Property View: Customizable view that allows me to select a given property and view, update, and save information including the obvious facts, plus ownership %'s, reserves to be held each month, property tax/insurance info, purchase and loan info.

Basically his premise is nothing makes money like money and that's what creates wealth inequality.I recommend this Econtalk podcast interview with him, the economist host does not back away from challenging him.http://www.econtalk.org/thomas-piketty-on-inequality-and-capital-in-the-21st-century/

Quote from @Sonja Revells: @Chris Seveney primarily Padsplits  I would speak to a few lenders first before going through all these hoops, as I started to do this then when talking to banks they were basically telling me either get a secured mortgage as they will not lend to a real estate company on unsecured credit/debt.

There is a cinder block structure on it now that is basically a 1BR, 1BA shell with plumbing fixtures, but no kitchen.
