You can charge up to but not more than what the local power company rate is in your area.

You could start BRRRRing houses and maybe that would allow you to buy more and make more cash flow.As for the paying off the mortgages, I would make you minimum payments monthly and when rates go down in years, you could refinance but pay the same amount and that will help you to pay it off sooner while you are left in the same Cash flow position. 

Perhaps a fix and flip due to the higher rate?

My strategy is to buy and hold these properties, unfortunately I bought this one in January when rates were high.

It was both, but knowing how they treat property is also a good indication of character despite a poor credit rating

That creates a great opportunity to get seller financing on your first deal which is especially important now with rates where they are. 

Loans aren't just about interest rates.

For a DSCR, at 85% LTV (15% down), your rate is going to be 9%+ for the most part.

This allowed me to come up with a guess for rent as well as price to be sold.I then got pre approval from a bank, built a spreadsheet which let me estimate expected total return variance and likely value when varying interest rate, rent growth, appreciation.

Asking price is $699kAt 75% LTV in today's current rate scenario, this yields a negative cashflow.
