He owns all of the properties free and clear, with no more mortgages.  

There's a severe lack in proactive support and you're left wondering if they value you at all.

I've included an example below to help illustrate this.So different lenders have different rates (which do vary even for DSCR loans) but these are factors they all consider.See example below:DSCR < 1Principal + Interest = $1,700Taxes = $350, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $50Total PITIA = $2200Rent = $2000DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2000/2200 = 0.91Since the DSCR is 0.91, we know the expenses are greater than the income of the property.DSCR >1Principal + Interest = $1,500Taxes = $250, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $25Total PITIA = $1875 Rent = $2300DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2300/1875 = 1.23If a purchase, you also generally need reserves / savings to show you have 3-6 month payments of PITIA (principal / interest (mortgage payment), property taxes and insurance and HOA (if applicable).

@Kate LaveryHi Kate,I don't have all your answers... but I can tell you that if you physically received the $500,000 (cash, check or what have you payable to you) on the sale of your property - it won't fly as a 1031 exchange.  

One key component is making sure there is language that outlines how the purchase price is reduced if a payment is received BEFORE the closing.

I'd love to hear if you all figure it out.
