All are local except for one is a national brand auto supply store, using this for a warehouse. 

We get our cabinets through.the box stores.

In Franklinton there are plenty of large projects going on that will bring massive growth to the west side of Columbus, such as the Peninsula Development, which is a multiphase project that will erect a 24 story apartment complex featuring a grocery store, a multi use office space building, and a new hotel featuring a two-story venue. 

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).

If you need a new job once you move, you will need an offer letter prior to closing on your new home (and you will need 6 months reserves in order to be able to use the offer letter as income).

Install a lock box on the property with the key stored inside.

It is why postive cashflow is important.More to the point on cashflow, I'm saying that properties that cashflow only enough to pay for the PITI payment don't sound like strong investments (for me at this moment**) if what it would require is substantial cash reserves (which I dont have because im just getting in).

We have done The Fizz Shop in Illinois, The Popcorn Shop, a dog kennel, and even a clothing store.

I think a lot of folks are sitting on or building up cash reserves as rates have squeezed a lot of the potential cash flow opportunities of years past.
