It's done all the time and even better when you market it and include the current plans and permits (assuming you have this in place).

Then let appreciation and principle pay down come into play to get you up to 30% or so.Most people here on BP will push for self management, myself included.

Yes, we have a property manager who has handled everything for us, including the repairs we have done.  

I like the idea of including it in the rent as it ensures the tenant keeps the renters insurance and seems like the least amount of effortThanks!

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 = 1.23DSCR lenders generally let you vest either individually or as an LLC.

Tenant pays for almost everything, including HOA, property taxes, ordinary R&M.

When assembling your hard money loan package, include an executive summary, property appraisal, renovation budget, proof of funds, and borrower qualifications.

Hello everyone, anyone I have spoke to about REI in my personal life all tell me the same thing: don’t get into real estateThey are all people who have had properties themselves, have tried to rent them out and have told me horror stories of tenants and how repair costs or costs to property managers make it disadvantageous to earn profit or scaleI’m trying to invest with my spouse who is also included in these conversations.
