Quote from @Christi Wolverton: First time in 3 years of mid-term renting that I had a credit card denied two months after client moved in.  

Eg, i have a friend/client who determines it based on income vs PITI.

Dallas was a disaster for my clients.

I'm having a very hard time with them and on the verge of losing my earnest money on a house purchased to flip.

We've never used percentage-based criteria, like the 70% Rule, for purchases.

I have clients who are increasing their cash flow by between $19k and $55k and their cost basis is between $145k and $200k.

However, a common benchmark is aiming for at least 6-8% cash-on-cash return based on your total investment (purchase price + rehab + closing costs).Always factor in appreciation potential, tax benefits, and personal risk tolerance.

Many of these platforms integrate directly with QuickBooks Online, which I use for my clients.

The process can take client's anywhere from one month to two years of active and consistent searching, analysis and dealmaking to acquire the right home.

In Dayton, I find most of my clients like A/B class 1-4 units because they can actually cash flow AND be in great areas.
