Maybe do the calculation for your monthly reserves and multiply that by the number of months you feel comfortable with. 

@Shawn Pacaoan, as Stephen mentions, every hard money loan I have had/seen is interest only with a 12-18 month term.So take your interest rate divide by 12 and multiply by your loan balance. 

Now multiply this times a few hundred doors. 

The ability to leverage properties multiplies your ability to grow a sizable portfolio.

For someone with no experience, that possibility only multiplies.

I googled this and found that they multiply x .80 of the fair market value then subtract repairs and realtor fees, etc.

Then, you have a formula multiplying the absolute location fo the refi/loan amount and the term minus the 'yield maintenance year' at the top. 

The insurance companies are denying claims for "business interruption" or lost rents.They fear opening of the floodgates and an avalanche of cases, if they find coverage.

They like the buyers broker to handle that side so they can focus on the listings.The questions you are asking multiply that by thousands of other buyers asking the same thing.
