I can promise you that my first deal was TERRIBLE, but I lived at a reduced monthly cost to living than renting/buying a single family and that is what mattered. 

You will need to save that initial income to buy your first properties, get your mortgages, etc.You don't need a college degree to swing a hammer, but that psychology class could come in handy negotiating with a difficult tenant.

It's unbelievable that anyone could be so bad at buying real estate.

You could convert them to a DSCR loan but then transfer them to a LLCWhat we have done is save for down payments and renovation costs, - buy properties that need work rehab them and then refinance them out making sure it meets our dti.

I also like to be set higher than most of my competition because I only buy really cool properties that are sought after.
