There are good, bad, and ugly in each bucket.Being an investor, my opinion could certainly be bias by stating that I feel investors could better formulate an ARV based on comps, however, I can say for a fact that in my own experience, I have nailed the prices closer and more often than both agents and appraisers.

In fact, I think I just formulated a new equation: Old concept + New paint job = Hedge against boredom.By the way, you sound a little frustrated.

It's a completely new ballgame for us, tho, and we have a lot to learn and formulate.

I am trying to formulate my criteria for investment property.

I am in SC I need help formulating a lease purchase.

Example is if I am at 80% LTV on asset I may be at 1.35% DCR but to go to 85% or 100% LTV if permitting, I would personally need a much higher DCR depending on risk as viewed from a market and property level, as an example I would atleast 1.50%-1.75% DCR.Some people may look at it like the above with Debt Coverage Ratio (DCR) on the individual property level or they may look at it from DCR as global cash flow perspective with all personal income, business income, properties, notes, and other investment cash flows or cash flow activities net at the end of the day and stress test that to make sure the debt provides enough mental, emotional, and financial safety for the given increment of additional risk by borrowing X dollars.I would love to hear other views on how debt is managed or how debt preferences are formulated.
