@Meghan McCollum  - At one point, I had roughly 40 doors in Duluth.

I recommend sticking to one.

You can list all the reasons why you charge $250 for a one-time shoveling, but nobody will care when there are other vendors doing the exact same job for $100 or less.I'm in a city of 10,000.

Which one is more appealing - continuing to own the house or the security of that much cash/liquidity?

One thing that DSCR is not really set up for is if the property is "Subject to" meaning not move in ready/live able.

If so, then you can start looking for another one. 

Best of luck on your journey, the DMV in my opinion is still one of the strongest markets in the US to get started in.  

You will lose one of the best benefits of the real estate industry, appreciation.

Lenders desperately need/want business especially in this interest rate environment (right now, the main source of mortgage loan business in Florida is rehab financing as a result of the hurricane damages) and one way the big players differentiate themselves is by streamlining the process.

The house is worth around 900K, my share is one sixth of this at around 150K.
