I had a client of mine that was reached out to one of these buyers who was planning on taking his property, converting it into a boarding room situation, which was illegal and renting it out that way to maximize his returns.

There are some people "real estate consultants" who will give you detailed reports: if they think this is better for a flip, rental, what rents you could get, recommended repairs (not as detailed as an inspection report). 

So knowing the rent levels and operating expenses, to get to NOI.  

This was on KSL as well and the sellers were very very motivated.This year I have also purchased two single-family homes that I am rehabbing and both allow for lot splits so I will have a renovated home to sell or rent and a free and clear lot with each one.

An A+ credit file will have those 5 accounts open for 24 months...I say that because you won't necessarily be able to open account this week and then check back in a month... open the accounts get you started what helps your credit is managing those accounts successfully overtime.There are a few ways to speed up the process and give yourself an established history in a couple weeks instead of a couple of years... it won't work for everyone but it will help in certain circumstances.Reporting Rent To Credit: This can be done in a lot of different ways.

I'm a newbie trying to rent out rooms in my 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom house in Seattle.

Specifically, I am looking to track the projected rehab cost of each unit, cash flow from rented units, first lien costs, general partners and limited partner returns.

Paul recently implemented 3% rent control (irrespective of inflation) which has been a complete disaster so far - no one knows how to enforce it, developers are stopping new builds, etc.

We are using the "rent-by-room" strategy, and we put electronic locks on all bedroom doors and the front door.

We no issues closing in an LLC, as a matter of fact most of my lenders will prefer it (assuming it is not your primary residence)Assuming it is not your primary residence, the easiest way to do this deal would be through a DSCR Loans.A DSCR Loan will use current rents or market rents if the property is vacant and personal tax return from you would NOT be required.It also referred to as a No Ratio Loan because your personal Debt To Income is not important.What is important is that the property can pay for itself.If we keep the LTV Low the rate for this loan can be better than a conventional loan.If you ARE Living in the property and you want to keep it... it would mostly depend on how motivated you are and how willing you'd be to "postpone gratification"The best bet is still a DSCR Loan.. which means you moving and renting the property out.We can bring in Asset Based Financing that can help with cash down (if you need it) or to pay cash for another property for you to reside in.Once you're moved out we can do the DSCR Loan at a 70% - 80% LTV or we can calculate a comfortable cash flow number.For example, max cash out that will give you $500 cashflow after a full PITI payment.Let's discuss more!
