I am trying to calculate my returns over a 10-year period using the rent-by-room strategy, which results in significantly more cash flow than traditional rentals.

I get that having a paid off property is very comforting, but to me it's not the best move if you're trying to grow. 20% down and 3% annual appreciation means you're making a 15% return on your downpayment.

Before committing, I’d highly recommend researching demand in your target area and connecting with operators who already run similar rentals there.A tiny home or glamping concept could be a huge hit in a market where it’s fresh and unique, but in areas where it’s been done before, you’ll need to bring something innovative to stand out.

@Chris Seveney - I asked Chat GPT about the correlation between Real Estate Syndicator time spent on social media, and the likely correlation to investment returns :).

The majority of our properties already have DSCR loans on them, are tenant occupied, have been owned for less than a year/have sizable capital gains, are in a high appreciation market, may take a while to sell at market price on the MLS.Are there any loan products, even ones with balloon payments, that would let us access some of our equity in our properties through refinance or a 2nd position loan.

Highly recommend self-managing so you can take advantage of a cost segregation and the short term rental loop hole!

Tenant Default: 0-5% probability of eviction or early lease termination.Section 8: Class A rents are too high and won’t be approved.Vacancies: 5-10%, depending on market conditions.Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Class B Properties:Tenant Pool: Majority of FICO scores 620-680, some blemishes, no convictions/evictions in last 5 years.Tenant Default: 5-10% probability of eviction or early lease termination.Vacancies: 10-15%, depending on market conditions.Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 1-3 years for positive cashflow, balanced amounts of relative rent & value appreciation.Section 8: Class B rents are usually too high for the Section 8 program.Class C Properties:Tenant Pool: Majority of FICO scores 560-620, many blemishes, but should have no convictions/evictions in last 3 years.

If I were to look for other funding I’d look for an investor with a set return.
