I tell people if they can match their current rent or do better then it's likely worth it, but you may need to get creative on the cash flow part if you only plan on living their a year or two.

Currently, I'm analyzing different markets to see which one will best match my strategy.

I'm in the middle of a BRRRR too and I chose to have Sherwin Williams color match "inchyra blue" for walls I usually just go with Behr but with cabinets, will be so much easier if you have high quality paint!

There you will be asked your criteria and then after answering a few questions you will be matched with 3-5 agents or loan officers in your area.

A goal of 40 doors is theoretical and likely just matches the income that you want to get to that ranch, but managing 40 doors, especially when they are broken up into 15-20 properties is a bear for you or for property management fees (especially so if they are not all near each other).

Being specific about geography, price points, willingness to take as is properties, speed of decision making and closing, whether you are a cash buyer or not, property specs....that will go a long way in your brand as a good match for an agent.

And then your REI income matches your W2 income the first time etcTo your question: equity is the name of the game.

I noticed some T accounting shows matching liabilities, so I'm a little confused as to whom the actual lender would be in that instance.

Notice that the table you just pasted in matches my Scenario 2 exactly.

Making this up but you will probably need to own 100 of these to match the stories you’re referring to.
