Vet potential partners carefully and aim for relationships that can grow with your portfolio.In this higher interest rate environment, focus on cash flow and creative financing options like the HomeStyle rehab loan or seller financing.

I'm interested in joining a class action.

No - absolute max for DSCR is 85% LTV and that is extremely rare and typically not workable in this rate environment anyways.Standard/common max is 80% (acquisition and rate-term refinances) and 75% Cash-Out Refis

@Shakthi Kamal read copy and paste advice below.For cashflow, you'll be looking at mostly Class C properties/tenants.Be SURE you UNDERSTAND what this means or your expectations won't match reality!

@Drew Sygit had an excellent response regarding property class.

The environment now with higher interest rates and higher purchase price does make it more difficult but definitely doable. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

Furthermore, my advice is to pick a singular investment thesis or asset class.

Leveraging a property in todays environment of high interest rates will not get you cash flowing.
