Prices are still considerably higher than just a few years ago.

I've dedicated a considerable amount of time to reading books, tuning into podcasts, and educating myself about the real estate market.

The assignment agreement addendum was signed a few weeks into escrow.I was not worried that this would trigger the seller to back out.  

I was told to get a home under contract via the Option to Purchase contract (include a consideration fee given to the seller) and getting all signatures done with a copy given to the seller.

It was an early consideration of mine but during my brainstorming it got overlooked.  

Looking to invest, I was thinking of flipping, as well airbnbs, etc.... many RE options -cant decide which one is right for me....obviously $ is consideration too,...

Alternatively, consider a cash-out refinance to access equity without triggering capital gains or explore a 1031 exchange to defer taxes by purchasing another investment property.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

In the end, the weekend after the fed announced the first interest rate drop, we had an open house that had more traffic than our opening weekend 3 months earlier. we received a full-price offer for the house and closed in early November. obviously I have no way of knowing if the interest rate drop was a trigger, but nothing else changed in the market at that time. just wanted to share in case others are curious. appreciate all the thought partnership!

You also have to take into considerations things like appreciation levels and the current condition.

**Long-Term Strategy**: These loans are often seen as a long-term financing solution, allowing investors to hold properties and build equity over time.In summary, DSCR loans can be a powerful tool for real estate investors, but they require careful consideration of the property's income potential and market conditions.
