We built two homes side by side on infill lots with a lot value of $20k each and hard construction costs of $196k (builder’s fee not included).

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).

Would you have any recommendations, in your experience, for what to look out for in the documents that would be red flags or items that would negotiable?

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.

I charge 20% straight to co host which includes vendor/guest /cleaner communication and managing the property.

I instead look at it as a potential red flag.

(It was Hollywood and everybody has dogs)2) Somebody tried selling the appliances that came with the unit which included the fridge, dishwasher, stove & microwave.3) We were recently affected by the fires and had to evacuate, some tenants refused to evacuate even after police forced them to because they were "tougher than the fire".Have you heard of those horror stories about tenants completely trashing apartments and feces all over the apartment?

I will be into it about $9,371 with closing and have a payment PITI including HOA of $1,205.

For your payout, I don't know the full story but Airbnb doesn't cover extra fees including cleaning fees.
