Thank Hey Eric,DSCR is a tool like any other loan product and as others have said, it will help you to scale, but you can't live in/house hack the property.Full disclosure; my company does DSCR and hard money for fix and flip exclusively and I'll tell you the same thing I tell all of our clients-exhaust the opportunity to use conventional financing BEFORE you dip your toe in the DSCR world. 

Be sure to include in your math the loss of the section 121 exclusion on your $50 gain in value.BP members often ask if their former primary residence makes a good rental and in most cases it does not (unless pre-planned as such).

If you are allowing dogs - make sure the tenant's renters policy does not have exclusions for dog bite and/or dog breed. 

Last three years I have exclusively invested in debt funds as I did not trust the experience of some of the other sponsors.Integrity Mortgage Note Fund - Jamie Bateman7e Investments - that is mine which I of course invested in. 

Any adult claiming to sleep 4hrs per night is crazy. 

My tenant has a young adult child that was on the lease as a minor.

(yes, its your primary so you can't 1031...)The $170k pretax (I'm just using your numbers here).. is the same post tax because of the sec121 exclusion... 

Keep that pipeline open, but unless you tell me you're getting 65% occupancy or more with exclusively direct bookings and that's been going on for a bit of time, I'd still want to establish a presence on the big platforms as well. 

Insurance companies have many exclusions and they may not cover everything, but they can help to pay for some of the costs of a lawsuit.Good:Using one LLC for all of your rental properties.

Years ago we shared a campfire with a man and his son, they were being offered an exclusive contract to fabricate kitchens for McDonalds.
