My goal is to own a 100 man+ electrical company as my main business, which I will make sure to do. 

I recently read David Greene's BRRRR book, and it is my main priority moving forward.I have some experience in real estate investing.

Based of my market knowledge, the strongest rental areas are the suburbs (strong neighborhoods in bucks, chester, delco, montco (main line), northeast phila, parts of mount airy, chestnut hill. 

There are multiple factors to consider, but from what I'm reading, you're better off doing STR if you're good with more turns.

The following details matter when asking this question and you didn't provide them: Level of participationREPS or notType of property (short-term, long-term)Since you didn't provide them, it look Austin Cheatham answered the question assuming long-term, and didn't take the other factors into consideration.

Main thing is to find out where his perceived risk is and what HE thinks will reduce his risk. 

You'll need to consider DTI for any of those options, which is usually the limiting factor for people as they start to scale. 

I've included an example below to help illustrate this.So different lenders have different rates (which do vary even for DSCR loans) but these are factors they all consider.See example below:DSCR < 1Principal + Interest = $1,700Taxes = $350, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $50Total PITIA = $2200Rent = $2000DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2000/2200 = 0.91Since the DSCR is 0.91, we know the expenses are greater than the income of the property.DSCR >1Principal + Interest = $1,500Taxes = $250, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $25Total PITIA = $1875 Rent = $2300DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2300/1875 = 1.23If a purchase, you also generally need reserves / savings to show you have 3-6 month payments of PITIA (principal / interest (mortgage payment), property taxes and insurance and HOA (if applicable).

.: There IS going to be a big impact on Real Estate, especially for Single Family and small Multi-Family that is Owner Occupied.The SALT Deductions are slated to expire at the end of 2025.Trump has already said that he will allow it to Expire:https://about.bgov.com/insights/elections/2025-tax-policy-cr...This is NOT a small change.The Standard Deduction gets reduced by about 40%.Then you get to deduct the SALT (State and Local Tax) that you paid PLUS up to $1 Million in Interest from your Mortgage against your Federal Tax Return.The only limiting factor will be AMT (Alternative Minimum Tax).In 2017 when this Cap was put into place, it made sense.However, now that the average Home sells for about Double what it was back in 2017, many normal Americans can benefit from the Expiration.I'm hoping that the Trump Administration does not extend the Cap.Too many people will love him more if he allows it to Expire!

However, I'm also unsure how material participation would factor into this scenario.
