Whether it’s through customer databases, CRM platforms, property management software, or digital marketing efforts, real estate companies routinely gather personal and financial data for sales, leasing, and property management.

This creates two loan payments ($100,000 of equity and $300,000 on the new mortgage).Key NumbersHome Equity Loan Interest Rate: 6%Mortgage Interest Rate: 7%Rental Income: $3,000 per monthExpenses (management, taxes, insurance, maintenance): $800 per monthIncome and ExpensesMonthly Rental Income: $3,000Monthly Expenses: $800Monthly Mortgage Payment: $2,000ExplanationThe investor earns $3,000 in rent each month.They pay $2,000 on the investment property mortgage and $800 on other expenses.This leaves $200 profit each month or $2,400 per year.However, you have to pay $6,000 interest on the equity borrowed.This leaves you with an annual loss of $3,600.This example shows that while the rental property generates positive monthly income, the interest cost of borrowing the initial $100,000 results in an overall annual loss.

Consider targeting young professionals and small families who are looking for modern living spaces close to their workplaces and urban amenities.Property Analysis:Exterior and Structure:Materials: The exterior is clad in modern siding, likely a composite material or Hardie board, known for durability and low maintenance.

I gathered all my notes in a 50+ pages document touching on the formation and maintenance of LLC and business structures, transferring assets, protection strategies, trusts, anonymity, insurance, levels of protection, etc. including when you should do it, how many properties per LLC, due on sale clause, selecting an attorney, fees, checklists and resource materials.Doc: https://www.biggerpockets.com/files/user/CosIorg/file/tritoriam-fileAsset Protection Decision Diagram - to help assess the need for asset protection, and what to implement : https://www.biggerpockets.com/files/user/CosIorg/file/asset-protection-decision-diagramAsset Protection Onion Diagram - what, when and at what cost one should implement in terms of asset protection - https://www.biggerpockets.com/files/user/CosIorg/file/asset-protection-onion-diagram-v2What is needed for complete asset protection OR the domains that need to be intersected to find asset protection - https://www.biggerpockets.com/files/user/CosIorg/file/asset-protection-spectrum-diagram (this is more of a joke depicting the nebulosity of asspro rabbit holes).How a fully implemented asset protection layout might look. - https://www.biggerpockets.com/files/user/CosIorg/file/asset-protection-structures (overwhelming and overkill for a newbie in REI)PS.

For rentals, focus on properties that generate solid cash flow after covering mortgage, taxes, insurance, and maintenance.

The good news is that the financial metrics you've read about are universal and not at all country specific.The bad news is that Germany may just not be a good cash-flow market, compared to the U.S.But then, few markets are.That's why you find so many Germans and Australians and Spaniards and others trying so hard to find great deals in the U.S.And, even in the States, there are plenty of sub-markets where properties routinely fail the so-called "1% rule."

After moving out, I’d still be out of pocket $750 to $1,500 a month to cover vacancy, capital expenditures, maintenance, and property management.

It's just the AC and some deferred maintenance that it really needs.
