Hi, I am brand new to real estate investing and need some assistance understanding price to rent ratios.  

Guests don't go walking out with them and just because that many rolls are available, doesn't mean the guest is going to use them all.For paper towels one brand new roll should be enough for a stay.

Looking to buy a brand new house 2023 price is reasonable and charging 0.8-1% of purchase price is do able..my question is financing real estate but my first property is almost paid off and has been an uninterrupted rental for 7 years thankfully 90% paid off, cash is tight...could take out loan against CC at 4% flat to pay off house then maybe leverage paid off rental (private mortgage)?

Unless you buy a brand new house there is probably deferred maintenance.

I do recommend creating social profiles to strengthen your brand online.

A brand new oven and as purchased and installed in March 2023.

And the brand? 

Sense check on the rents of my units: 5 BR 3 bath coach house with 1 parking spot ($2,500), 5 BR 2 bath duplex down ($2,450), 3 BR + den 1 bath unit with brand new kitchen, plus parking spot ($1,450).

Most of the big name brands want no part of property management.
