Some investors will find a mobile notary that is willing to hand over a check to the seller, on the buyer's behalf, once the seller has signed the deed.

I checked Zillow, Rentometer, and the Bigger pockets calculator.

It isn't insanely different from regular deal but it is also great not paying high fees for a DSCR loan.

I like to think of lost rent as a regular operating expense and factor it in as vacancy rate.The most important thing in this case is to not take it personally, don't let it make you mad or bitter.

The second thing is to know the rules of the sale, like all cash, no cash, no personal checks, deposits required the day of sale, pre-registering bidders, etc. 

Keep in mind that when you are putting a furnished rental out into the world, it needs to be in a location where a single female can check in alone at night and feel safe getting from her car to the front door.

Taking into account vacancy, mgmt, regular expenses, reserves, repairs, and my mortgage.

I'd be interested to hear if anyone has STR near there, you would need a non-HOA regular block to have a chance I would think.

At least check the rate of the 15. 

Where I had issues was during construction and getting the checks from the lender.
