In my experience, a successful BRRRR typically comes down to two main things: finding a good deal and managing an efficient renovation.

@Isaac Terry Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

Is it really worth the higher rate and poor experience?

If it's the difference between $1800 and $2200 but you have to cover utilities too, not worth it. 

Is this potential $700 cash flowing asset worth it?

We've worked with local banks and been able to finance the three we own without any issues.I don't necessarily know if it's "beginner" investor friendly but you'll learn everything you need in the bootcamp which is the gold standardWe get loans with 3-7 year balloons and 25 year amortization typically

And if they did, what's an hourly rate worth depending on their experience? 

The "variables" you speak to could mean this is worth every cent of a 5.4% cap rate to "I wouldn't touch this for a 12 cap".  

DSCR loans are based off of down payment, credit score and either actual or market rents so it helps to supercharge an investor's real estate goals and net worth. 

We don't spend anywhere near that much nor do we go through 2k worth of linens, kitchen stuff or furniture.
