Michelle Chevalier Confused about conventional versus DSCR
9 June 2024 | 18 replies
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 = 1.23DSCR lenders generally let you vest either individually or as an LLC.

G'Day guys,Lately, I've been super duper pissed off with our investors that I decided to keep all of the deals for myself 🤷‍♂️I've always preached that there is not a single deal that we sell that I wouldn't be willing to keep for myself.So there's that lolJust picked up a 6 unit which us humble Ohio folk would consider an A class area (Sorry East and West Coasts as our A class is your Z Class lol)$160,000 purchase price$50,000 rehabCurrent rents are $3,000 per monthOptimized rents will be $4,000 per month.BPO before purchase $220,000 - $250,000ARV $350,000ARV with interest rates at 6% potentially $400,000+Cashflow = S#%$ load $$$Granted, it took 4 months to get the contract signed and we had to go to McDonalds 4 times to meet with the seller so sign each page individually single time lolYep, it was one of those.All in all, great deal and they are definitely out there.Working on another one now that will be converted into a duplex and is located in a top notch school district.Somehow picked this one up for $20,000 and needs $45,000 in rehab.ARV is $110,000 conservatively Combined rents will be $1,300pm.Ohhh yeah, almost forgot.Also, picked up a SFH from a wholesaler believe it or not for $20,000 that after inspection needs around $15,000 in rehab.ARV all day long is $80,000.Says WHO there aren't any good deals???

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the key, and that will take a tremendous investment that likely will cost more than the reservations that you get.For an individual, self-managed property, you are pretty much wasting your time; the major channels are paying Google tens of $ millions per year to dominate the rankings.

10 June 2024 | 49 replies
even when I come down to miami we can make the deals work through density and ground up development but when I speak to individual investors without a lot of experience in construction they end up building in columbus not miami because of this exact reason the price point of land is more conducive for a newer investor who even though they may have the cash wants to do something smaller
