I'll make a long story as short as possible:> House built in 2008, first owners used husbands VA loan to secure (220k loan), stopped paying HOA and bank shortly thereafter (current payoff 500k+). 

It is very very hard to make an NOI of $2000 every month or an average NOI, when your general occupancy trend is like weekends and long weekends because Poconos is not where USA travels, it is basically people from close by cities of NJ, NY, PA travel here.I am not saying it is not the place to invest but if you are looking for cashflow with a 20% down with current mortgage rate, I would run my numbers very carefully.I did not touch on HOA, township licensing and restrictions specially 2 people max per bedroom and Pocono Promise :P

Just keep an eye on HOAs since they can affect your bottom line.

Is your DSCR ratio greater than 1-meaning are you cash flowing (according to the lender's criteria of mortgage, property taxes and insurance (and HOA) if applicable).

Many lenders, including my group, offer a DSCR product to refinance on the back end as well.Before taking out a loan for a BRRRR project be sure to calculate all carrying costs (taxes, insurance, utilities, HOA, loan interest, etc.) to ensure (i) you have sufficient cash to cover monthly payments for at least the duration of the project and (ii) your estimated rent after repairs is at least 1.10x PITI (monthly refinance loan payment principal and interest, taxes and insurance).We have a proprietary BRRRR cash flow calculator tool that we share with our clients to help reliably assess costs and returns for these types of projects.

I assume it has HOA and the like.

.- Rent was $1,750/month, but the mortgage was $1,900/month, plus an HOA fee of $360/month.- This meant I was out of pocket $510 each month.Fire Incident:- In November 2022, a fire in the unit above caused water damage to my unit.

Turning the studio into a functional Airbnb (if its allowed by your HOA or local government rules) or long term rental to increase your income.

There are still restrictions on setbacks from property lines, but local zoning and HOAs can no longer stop you based on the state law.
