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).

You'll want to take a spreadsheet and create a list of all properties you've purchased...particularly in the last 36 months and include the address, lender, purchase date, either rent you receive or disposition date, how much you sold it for, how much you rehabbed it, etc.

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

Benefits of the ATI ExemptionThe ATI exemption offers several key benefits:Reduced Tax Burden: By lowering the assessed value, property owners can significantly reduce their property tax bills, freeing up resources for other investments or operational expenses.Encourages Investment: For real estate investors, the exemption makes South Carolina a more attractive market by reducing the tax impact of property acquisitions.Substantial Tax Savings: The reduction in taxable value can lead to considerable property tax savings over time.Multi-Year Benefit: The exemption can apply for up to five years after the sale (based on SC revaluation cycles).Wide Applicability: It’s available for various types of properties, including multi-family projects, commercial properties, and even vacant land for development.Who is Eligible for the ATI Exemption?

Hello AllI have a opportunity to purchase a 3 unit rental property. how should I structure the offer and what should be required in it.Does the seller provide a fee and clear Title with Title insurance, should the seller be required to evict the tenants before I purchase, what verifications or contingencies should i include. etc......ThanksJeff

Biggest lesson here for everyone is NOT to include utilities EVER!!!!!

We simply include the tax on the invoice sent to guests, which makes it easier to track and ensures we're covered for tax purposes at the end of the year.For Chicago, I’d recommend checking directly with the city’s tax office or a CPA, but generally, you’ll need to register with the city, collect the hotel tax from guests, and remit it on a regular schedule (likely monthly or quarterly).

I am also a huge fan of real estate and for the past 50 years there's been a way to combine both.By leveraging a Self-Directed IRA, real estate investors enjoy both the traditional advantages of property ownership and the additional tax benefits of retirement accounts, creating a powerful wealth-building strategy.
