I suggest to get pre-approved for the refinance loan amount before starting the BRRRR given that the hard money loan will alter your debt-to-income ratio to make sure you don't get stuck in the middle of the BRRRR deal.Sounds like you're on the right track with BRRRR, best of luck and I hope you can score some awesome deals!

Hi Alan, I've answered this Q at length in other threads, but suffice it to say, unless you find a STEAL on a move-in ready home, or a reallllly good deal on a flip AND can bring it to code, what you call student rentals are not likely to cashflow in city limits.

@Allan SmithHave you had issues or concerns with giving out the lockbox code for renters to see the unit?

.- Code becomes a bigger and costlier deal -- all of your properties will be squarely considered commercial and NOT residential, so when you pull permits to do substantial improvements you'll *get* to install a sprinkler system, etc- (speculation here) More susceptible to property tax hikes As for me and my house, we have chosen to buck the conventional wisdom and stick to SFR and small multi's (doubling down on what we know and are skilled at) until we can jump to more sizeable mutlifamily properties.
