I already have a few GC/contractors lined up who have experience in rehab projects.

Learned so much from this experience and can't wait for the next one!

Curious to learn more about your experiences.  

I manage around 400 rentals with 14 years of experience and have never been sued once.

@Kim Huynh - lots of insurance brokerages use the same carriers so it is likely that it is going up a lot everywhere (that's my experience).What I have done for a bunch of years is to partially "self insure".  

But I wondering how difficult is it to get a DSCR loan without experience building or buying rental properties.1.

If you have this extremely valuable experience already under your belt owning 2 properties, why dish out a potential down payment for property number 3 over to a mentor or coach?

Specifically, I'm looking at Joshua Tree and Borrego Springs.Does someone here have experience in these two markets? 

I finished a large rehab yesterday that had more go wrong than any of my previous rehabs (we have a fair amount of experience) but still only went 10 days over our aggressive schedule.  

They're all going to use NOI/PITI, but you'll experience a range of DSCR requirements which will directly affect your max LTV and you'll also experience a range of rates.
