@Steven MendiolaHouse hacking in Denver involves calculating cash flow, obtaining financing, finding rent-potential properties, and planning for vacancies and expenses.

My little calculator tells me I should still be better than 1.25 in any scenario but just thought I'd check with some more experienced folks to have a better idea of what to expect.    

Joseph: Would you mind telling me how you calculated the ROI at 2-5%?

You should calculate projected rental income and see how it compares to your monthly payments of $4,210.31.

I calculated this one as a potential fix and flip and making it a 2-3 room home at a little over 900 sq ft..

Look up Airdna Airbnb calculator.

This can help offset costs and improve your financial position.Cash Flow- Calculate all expenses related to both properties (mortgages, property taxes, maintenance, insurance) and ensure you have a positive cash flow.Vacancy Rates- Factor in potential vacancies when estimating rental income.

This property had my heart from the moment I saw the listing, but it took A LOT of work and calculations (and LUCK!!!)

So don't discount it at all.Don't be impulsive, be calculated.

Look for good rental demand.Repairs – Estimate what it’ll cost to fix anything.Plan – Decide if you’ll rent, sell, or hold the property.Biggerpockets has a lot of different calculators as well to help you out: https://www.biggerpockets.com/investment-calculatorsYou got this!
