Hey Faiz, It will depend on the type of loan you do.

If so, now I'm seeing lenders willing to do DSCR loans of 75% LTV, so then would I switch to say 75% Rule for analysis?

I am new to this and am open to being shown I'm incorrect, but I have finally duplicated the problem with a spreadsheet since it was driving me crazy.The formula for "Profit if sold" is Property Value - Sales Expenses - Loan Balance - Cash Needed + Cumulative Cash Flow. 

My client just closed on a 4 plex with his VA loan 3/6/23.

I just started the mortgage application process and have been pre-approved for a loan with a 6.75% interest rate.

You had a $150k loan, so after $20k in closing costs you  only get $30k. 

I have a home owner requesting $94-139k HEI loan, structured to pay the loan when the house is sold, in 10 yrs. 

@Tracy ScottLike @Wale Lawal alluded to ... the cost to buy a house-hacking property here in Colorado (or anywhere) are really no different than the costs of buying any property, regardless of your use.Upfront-- You've got down payment and closing costs (1-3% of loan amount). -- Inspection (maybe $500) and appraisal ($500-$1,000 depending on market) -- Any furnishings, if you plan to furnish it.

The year before informing me of this divorce he had begun to secretly take out several loans on our joint banking accounts and against 2 of the 3 paid off vehicles then didnt pay them.

Not just a lender who can put together a loan document (they all can do that), but someone who is interested in your goals and can advise you in different strategies, downpayment assistance programs, etc that can get you going.From there your financial strategy and the local market will begin to steer you in a direction of homes available and that fit your finances.
