Do you need all this for a couple of rentals?

You are a local investor with a couple properties, not a conglomerate, and you are looking to get one more and the open market is dry.

It has been a couple days and have not seen an answer.If you own a rental property and you have a signed lease at the minimum of 1+ year, does that rental property mortgage (traditional investment loan) still count against your DTI?

I do use docusign for the lease signatures but that's just a personal preference!

.- Lower down because I can do FHA loan- Probably don't need a property manager because I live here- With the potential rent income vs monthly mortgage price, I am probably breaking even if lucky- Pro tenantJacksonville:- Total cost of home is lower, even though I will have a higher down payment because I am buying it as an investment property- With the potential rent income vs monthly mortgage price, I might make a couple hundred a month... which can eventually be used as a down for another property?

I’m looking at a few - one gives you a 12-15% preferred return and you can exit in a year if you want. 

We would prefer to not sue and make the overall process as non-litigious as possible.

With 3 units being self managed its hardly worth automating something what may only happen ever couple months or so. 

Here is the link to file, and there is a lot of other information here as well:https://www.fincen.gov/boiDeadline to file is Jan 1, 2025 for existing entities and within 90 days of filing a new entity.I registered a couple dozen entities a while back and once you have it down you can file in less than 2 minutes.  

Good idea, I prefer that to be kidnapped at a coffee shop, thank you for the advice Sherri!
