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).

In my opinion, a more moderate quarter-point cut would have signaled confidence in the economy's underlying health.

Wishing you health and wealth in the new year!

This is a garden home and the yard is fenced in with a 10 foot privacy board in board fence The neighbor stated it was making her violently ill and that it is a health hazard for her as it was coming in through her vents and or windowsshe has also been known to harass my last tenant, and sending us text that trees are too close to her home telling us that we need to cut it because there were branches over her skylight and she claims that it was scratching the cover. she called the city when the last tenant had to sell all of her items at an estate sale due to loosing her job and having to move from the property and cited that she was in violation of city ordinances due to not informing the county of an estate sale.

There is no such thing as FREE college, FREE food, FREE housing, FREE health care.

To illustrate this there are probably 50+  active MLS properties in North Philadelphia/South West Philadelphia and other lower tier neighborhoods at any given time where you can complete the BRRRR  method but the real estate is lousy.

Hi all,I'm making a trip to KS (from CO) in a few weeks and will be seriously considering a few properties to be used as BRRR's and for mid term rentals.Question for this group:a. Anyone in this area? Or invest in the...

I would only suggest a property management company set up if you are not working for an employer and are interested in retirement account contributions + deducting health insurance costs.If you are already working for an employer who is providing a retirment account plan + subsidizing health insurance costs, in my opinion, no point in setting it up.

I have most of my tenants through local mental health/addiction services, and those tend to be better than the randoms from craiglist, as they typically have a case manager to check up on them occasionally...

@Adriana Collado Hudak - As the comments illustrate, there is no "one size fits all" answer to this question.
