Hi Karen,   Again, being a smaller lender, my goal is not to have dozens and dozens of borrowers doing a deal a year but work with experienced borrowers doing 1-2 deals a month.  

A 700,000 FMV and Assessed Value property(most recent sale price is tax value) is taxed at $20,000/year.

Only a dozen or so made it to the workshop which was without doing the math around 15% of those who had paid for it.  

We're bringing a knowledgeable general contractor to the property walk-through next week to assess potential risks, and I will also check the HVAC and electrical systems myself, as I have some experience in these areas.

This can be useful if you want to keep growing your portfolio without being limited by personal DTI or income requirements.That said, here are a couple of things to keep in mind:DSCR Loan Terms: These loans often have higher interest rates and different terms compared to conventional mortgages, so it's important to assess whether the potential benefits of restructuring the loan through your LLC outweigh the cost of refinancing.Asset Protection Plan: Even if you refinance into a DSCR loan, make sure to have a solid estate plan in place.

Tenants and investors in general don’t care for their buildings as much/well as residential owners  (who fights reserve increases and special assessments the hardest - investors).

I would like to learn :- more about identifying a potential market to invest in- how to perform a Cash on cash analysis on those markets to assess a positive cash flow within the US/Hawaii- open to markets within the US/HawaiiThank you @Scott Trench Best, Reeti

I, along with a dozen others, teach subject to and creative finance.

Earlier this year, the government did not renew or pass any law to extend bonus depreciation back to 100% after 2027, so the current phase-out schedule remains in place.In the meantime, I would recommend doing some tax planning to assess where you stand in terms of projected tax liability for 2024.

So your material participation is assessed across all your rental properties collectively not one-by-one.
