Unless you get a crazy steal of a deal...The BRRRR method is great, but not really working in todays market (unless of course you get a homerun of a deal).

- **Stay Engaged**: Keep the lines of communication open and express your continued interest in the property, even if he needs time to think it over.By approaching the seller with empathy, clear benefits, and a willingness to listen, you can effectively plant the idea of seller financing and potentially create a mutually beneficial arrangement.

To maximize the number of transactions you’re involved in you will need to:Be Top of Mind when they think about moving - which requires consistent reminders.Be seen as an Expert – which requires a consistent message and Evidence of Success storiesGain their Trust – which requires communicating integritySo, start out by listing everyone you know in an Excel spreadsheet.

I help maximize and schedule showings, communicate with other agents and tenants, and provide access to promulgated paperwork and full transaction management.

I realize this is a complex concern so just looking for general advice here based on the experiences of others.I would manage bookings and client communications aside from maybe an on call service for at night.

You could also qualify if you spend more time on the property than anyone else involved, regardless of hitting 100 hours.Ex. managing contractors, handling bookings, setting up the property, or dealing with guest communications, you might meet the material participation requirement without needing to track 100 hours.The key is to document everything.

Quote from @Stevens Jaquez: I recommend you stop communicating with her.

Traditional mortgage, DSCR loan, brrr method?

But wanted to add that you may want to consider a consultation with an attorney or even your liability insurance company to discuss best ways to handle this up front to avoid mis-steps in communication with the tenants, neighbors, media etc.

Since you’re renting out partially, a common method is to use the square footage of the rented areas relative to the total property space.
