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).

I’m not debating the strategy or patent, I’m just not seeing the value in paying over 5k for “coaching” that may or may not yield the results the calculation illustrates.

I created the following decision tree diagram to illustrate the decision process (click to enlarge).The above decision process is based on the property’s performance record, with the goal of achieving financial freedom in mind.Financial freedom is not just replacing your current income.

Contingency:No need to go through the same process to illustrate contingency but contingent funds can be applied to the loan interest example above.

//End extra detailsI say all that to illustrate how much he seems to thrive on conflict. 

A simple example I have used before illustrates this point.  

However, there is a straightforward process that does not require any secrets or gurus, which is illustrated below (click to enlarge).I will summarize each step below.GoalsSetting written goals is the foundation of any successful venture.

See the illustration below (click to enlarge).Goals“If you don’t know where you are going, you might wind up someplace else.”

My guess is that's probably around 50% to 100% of the amount of capital initially raised when this deal went out.This scenario is illustrative of the risks of short-term loans.
