Driving relevant traffic to both a website and socials is hard without throwing some money behind it.

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 would be cautious buying in the saturated areas because there are so many similarly sized properties that price is becoming increasingly the deciding factor. 

Just drive by to see.

I'm sure they are out there but this is just a rule of thumb and I would rather use J Scott's approach when he analyses deals outlined in his book.You factor in your desired profit as a cost and you work backwards.

With my background in hospitality and a drive to create exceptional guest experiences, I decided to take the leap.
