During this time you are not generating any return from the money invested in the ADU.

I’ve been investing in Detroit for years and built a 12-door portfolio that generates $16,000/month in gross rents.

Generate a comp set in Pricelabs and you can go into finer details on what others are charging.

Potentially even visa versa since putting a few short term rentals would immediately generate some income and then sell off the parcels either with or without an income producing rental already in place.

However, they approach financial health from different angles.The 50% Rule is a quick estimate that suggests operating expenses (excluding mortgage principal and interest) will roughly equal 50% of the property's gross income.The DSCR is a more precise calculation (Net Operating Income / Total Debt Service) that determines if a property generates enough income to cover its debt obligations.Deal example:- Class C middle class neighborhood- 4bd / 2ba single family house- ARV: 190k- Purchase: 105k- Rehab: 35k- Market rent: $1,400-1,525- Section 8: $1,475- Property manager: 10%- Taxes: 125 month- Insurance $1250 yr- HOA: $55 month- purchased and rehabbed with all cash.

DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loans generally focus on the property's ability to generate enough rental income to cover the debt payment.

Or we gradually perform high-quality updates for a live-in flip, then roll the equity into a new home.Regarding rental income, we aim to boost income, lower our effective tax rate by generating more low tax-drag income with rental income (since there’s not much we can do to lower out W2 tax bills) and have retirement cash flow.To compare the financial impact over 10-20 years, we want to analyze renting versus flipping.

A potential goldmine for those seeking to increase property value and generate rental income.However, navigating this opportunity requires strategic planning.

It still seems preferable for this generation of homes in St Louis area.

Quote from @Pamela Rivas: Hi Natasha,Here are some key points to consider about setting up a Mexican corporation:Setup Costs: $1,500–$3,000 USDOngoing Costs: $1,000–$2,000 USD/year (accounting and tax filings)Benefits: Tax deductions for expenses like maintenance, repairs, and managementBest for: Multiple properties or income-generating investmentsWhile a corporation is ideal for managing multiple properties, it’s NOT required to obtain an RFC.
