Power.Having said that, we should all be aware of the ever-changing weather/climate and how it might affect our investing and more importantly, our lives and health.

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.

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.

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'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).
