While I use it primarily for noise concerns (it alerts me for sustained +80 decibels), it's also handy for cigarette smoke and tracking temperatures (in addition to our Ecobee thermostat)- sensors on all exterior doors and possibly windows (which you might have via smart locks for the doors)- exterior camsA recent guest for reasons only known to them set the thermostat to cool and 60F in the winter (where it's currently a balmy 11F). 

I probably wouldn't want to use a DSCR loan then, because my interest rate on the multi-family is much lower than the current rates. 

I agree that DealCheck (or the BP calculator) does not provide enough tools or functionality to analyze those types of transactions (yet).But I would argue that it does a great job at analyzing more traditional buy & hold SFRs and multi-families, as well as flips and rehab projects. 

I posted a bit about my experience here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/88/topics/406311-jacksonville-fl---sfh-new-constructionhttps://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/92/topics/501414-data-points-multi-year-turnkey-performance-your-experienceMy property is cash flowing well. 

They know my track record, etc.  

From my limited research so far I believe I'm most interested in BRRRR and Multi-Family.

Atlanta MSA is great and growing, but Multi-Family supply coming on line there both now and through next year is significant, wouldn't this be a better/cheaper deal 1 year from now?

I hope to invest in a SFR or small multi-family unit (i.e. house hack) at our next assignment to dip my toes into real estate investing.

Even the most meticulously crafted plans can frequently go off track due to unmet responsibilities or unforeseen events.This is the essential characteristic of the real estate industry.

Hi first post here just looking for advice, I rent a multi family home 2 unit for about 15 years have been lucky to have both units rented for 10 years no issues, well until now.
