I would like to find a way to generate additional income and am exploring options other than having a long-term roommate.

Why do you think purchase contracts are so long and have such small print?

Anywhere in between, I think it's deflationary because consumer won't continue to eat it & supply side is still long enough to not warrant new supply at tariff related prices.We really need to see how long this lasts.  

 @Greg Abel I think it's important to consider the long-term, as changing property management software is difficult.

I am investing out of state, I am from long island and work in NYC.

@Robert OkChoosing between single-family homes (SFH) and multifamily properties depends on your budget, risk tolerance, and long-term goals.

Ensuring your rental market can sustain these costs will help maintain profitability over time.The 7% DSCR loan is relatively high, and refinancing later at a lower rate could improve your long-term cash flow.

If this property is hard to rent, or is functionally obsolescent (only 1 bathroom, no yard, etc), or has deferred maintenance that will be costly, or is in a location that is not appealing to Tenants, then maybe a sale would be a good option in favor of a property that has better Tenant appeal, which will likely increase rent and avoid long vacancies in between Tenants.An option to consider....

From there once a deal makes sense, pull the trigger, a lot of folks get stuck in analysis paralysis and I’m not saying don’t do your due diligence or be smart about it, but acting quickly and with intention will benefit you greatly in the long run.

The type of analysis I run is a modified risk adjusted return analysis based on an analytical technique taught to be in an advanced finance class by a Professor long since retired.
