We pocket a little under $900 after all the household bills are paid.

- Must have stayed at your current rental >2 yrs (new as of today) although I did this verbally prior - 4500 take home house hold income from W2 verifiable jobs

Schools, jobs, walk-ability, average household income, days on the market for nearby homes...to name a few.

Let's say you get a mortgage and their is another housing crisis in the time frame you take that mortgage and you can no longer rent it out for the cost of that mortgage then you have to take funds out of your household to pay for it or even worse you can not afford it and have to let it go then you ruin your credit and you lose everything you put into it.

These parameters will help decide what kind of yields you are searching for, which you can use to filter down your list of macro markets.Then I would start by looking at the macro market's fundamentals, that is the population, job and income growth over time.After that, I would look to see what the rents and home prices are and how those are trending as well.I would do a similar analysis, but at the sub-market level for the metro area you are considering investing in.Other metrics that I find valuable to understand are household income, poverty, unemployment, and educational attainment.

More importantly, and what @Todd Baldwin the guest on the pod took great pride in, matching the right personalities in each household.

I would say the largest factor in neighborhood class is median household income but all the DISCERN factors play into it.

On the other hand, this is legal.Borrowing against your personal residence, where the use of the money is to start a business, is not a consumer loan (i.e. not for personal, family, or household use); it's a business purpose loan.

Now is that total household income or or just personal income?

Annual household income would be around 150k.
