Building equity and creating cash flow through real estate can set you on the path to financial freedom.

As @Lucas Martinez mentioned, FMV rents in Santa Barbara have exploded, I'm trying to be considerate of my tenants while also exploring a path to adding value to the investment--which I know probably falls into the oxymoron category.

You could explore other options, but with limited income on paper, this might be your best path for now.

If tariffs come into play, or any conflict those products become nonexistent and when we switch to a different country source, they will have tripled or quadrupled.

Thank you for the offer, best wishes on your path. 

FYI the account would be US based, not outside the country.

A severe reduction in gov't spending is the only path I see. 

If you're 25 or 35 and that monthly rent check gives you an extra vacation a year for the rest of your life, that might be fun too.Good luck and congratulations for being in the path of progress I guess.

I'm a Fractional CFO for real estate developers across the country and I ran the numbers on this deal and I estimate that if you look to a bank for a DSCR loan, you'll need to put 50% down.

Your resident might say they had to fly all over the country to attend meetings in person since their internet was out.
