Can I hand him the form now?

Let me know how I can help.

Have bought, renovated, refinanced and sold rentals in my portfolio.Besides monthly cashflow, you can cashout refi every 5-10 years or when increasing rents support the ability to do so. 

@Matthew Lamoreaux I think if you can find a rental, long-term or short-term, that cash flows well in today's market then this should be a factor that should be viewed as icing on the cake and should be used as a potential solidifier of a deal.

Great thanks @Michael Smythe, in your experience can you itemize the tenants that have the Resident Benefit Package? 

We do appreciate any advice on what we can do to be better.

We were fortunate to get the ball rolling fairly quickly and only have to fork out 1.5 months of mortgage on our own. my partner thinks he can do all the taxes for the home and depreciation on turbo tax, as that’s what he’s been doing forever since he’s a w2 earner.

As long as you can afford to lose a little every month you should be fine.

@John SteffenInvesting in house hacking or purchasing a primary residence for rental can be challenging due to affordability, vacancy fear, high interest rates, maintenance concerns, and location analysis.

I'm interested in learning all I can about this kind of stuff and wanting to dive in and have rental pay my monthly mortgage!!!
