That lessens the concern as there are often multiple groups of people at the house at a given time. 

Also, which choice is better for you highly depends on what your real estate goals are and the experience level & skillset of the specific agent.Traditional agent and Redfin Agent could essentially be the same thing in many cases.

you can use a DSCR loan if your DTI is too high for conventional. 

Rates are high, usually in the high 8s or low 9s, and you may pay 2-4 points on the loan.

It is somewhat complex to try to explain on a forum, but at a high level, you (aka GP) and your family member (aka LP) would agree on how much the 2 of you would put in for the amount of equity needed (usually expressed as a %).

Historically this property has cashflowed, but not yielding an annual amount that's really making a high impact towards overall business growth ~12k per year.
