If you are just getting out of high school, I don't know that a large DSCR loan seems like a good idea or possible, but maybe easier if you haven't built a ton of credit yet.

What is the typical amount someone might ask for so that it wouldn't seem unreasonable?

I can save money very fast considering i live a very frugal life and work a lot. considering how expensive AK is i will definitely have to divert and explore the lower 48 market at some point in which i have a few in mind already. it seems you specialize in MTR do you have any tips for me?

I have found a number of other users posted this question in the forum over the years but I cannot find a resolution anywhere.The way the Rental Property Calculator derives the "Profit if sold" number seems to have an error in it if you are using the function to increase the rental rate and expenses each year.

Seems like the best way to keep most of my money.

It seems you are confusing a few concepts.
