George Carter International real estate equity sharing concept
19 February 2024 | 12 replies
One way to think about it could be to tokenize the properties and have the shareholders hold tokens in these properties combined with the right to use the properties that have shares in.I wonder how you would want to make sure that the numbers work. if it is just a matter of a number of people sharing the properties with each other, you could just do that on AirBnB, but if there ownership is to go farther, some more details would need to be revealed.Based on what you have described, I don;t really see an incentive for any investor to do a deal like that when staying in other countries can be done with VRBO or hotels, or AirBnB, or many other options.

Matthew Gentile SFH versus MFH?
20 February 2024 | 6 replies
I feel like value-added opportunities would be easier in SFH over MFH for resales because families would purchase SFH differently from MFH which could be something to keep in mind in the long run as a safety net if you needed to sell because renting wasn't sufficient.

20 February 2024 | 1 reply
The formula for calculating DSCR is straightforward:DSCR=NetOperatingIncome(NOI)/TotalDebtServiceNet Operating Income (NOI) represents the property's income after operating expenses.Total Debt Service includes all debt obligations, such as loan payments, property taxes, and insurance.A DSCR ratio above 1 indicates that the property's income is sufficient to cover its debt obligations, while a ratio below 1 suggests insufficient cash flow to cover debt payments.Lenders usually have specific DSCR requirements, with higher ratios indicating lower risk for the lender.
