A drywall guy once told me that a quick way to calculate a whole house worth of work is to multiply the living sq footage by 3.5 then divide that by 48 sq ft ( 12 ft drywall ) and then multiply times per sheet cost.This is probably more applicable for new construction or full gut jobs.

Our ideal candidate is someone embedded in and active in the STR space, as subject matter expertise + working with partners and advertisers is a key element of this role.You can find the application here.Working for BiggerPockets alongside our incredible network of employees and contributors has been an incredibly rewarding experience for me, and I'm so excited to be growing our content team.

@Henry Clark, not exactly applicable to your start of this post but in response to this last reply, do you think its better to build still than to buy existing?

Your strategy may work attracting good tenants, but be careful disregarding applications or denying the property to qualify individuals that are protected class.

"the borrower is not using rental income from the applicable property to qualify" - does borrower here refer to the seller applying for a new loan or the buyer of the subto deal?

If you truly plan to live in the house as your primary residence, then you can put that down on your application.

., knows this is your intention and work with them to have the property transferred to the applicable Series in your Series LLC.  

We were just issued our Certificate of Occupancy and it has our names on it because that's what was on the permit application. 

And no idea how any loan beyond a DSCR loan works but knows that the DSCR is always the best option and thinks the DSCR loan is somehow undetectable from underwriting on the next application.  

Perform the same task in each app to ensure a fair comparison.Load a property with pictures and details.Market that property.See what your marketing looks like from the public's perspective.Submit a fake application to see how easy the process is.Run a credit/screening report on yourself.Enter a maintenance request, assign a vendor, and attach a fake invoice.Enter charges to the tenant's ledger.Enter recurring charges and automatic late fees.Sign documents electronically.Run owner reports.After testing a few apps, one should clearly stand out.
