I am a new investor based in California looking to start investing in the St.

Every tenant is different, how would you know how much insurance they would want or do you just do a "base" amount so they have basic coverage ?

I am a Brazilian Realtor based in Raleigh North Carolina I am also licensed in Massachusetts and wanted to give a shout out to everyone on here in the BiggerPockets community and see If I can network and chat with you all!

DSCR Rates are going to vary by quite a bit based on multiple factors (more than conventional), primarily FICO, LTV and DSCR - but also buydowns, prepayment penalties, and some alternative structures.That being said, I would say the average rate right now is around 7.5%, but can vary all the way down to 6% or higher than 9% for some special cases (like Multifamily 5+ or Mixed Use)Heres a couple articles on what goes into DSCR Rates (in addition to market) that hopefully helps!

My offer is usually based on his original estimate of the cost of repairs.

I'm based in Florida and investors here are getting killed by Taxes and Insurance.

For example I have a customer in Zurich who needs a mattress and adjustable base that only exists in the USA and they don't want to pay retail pricing.I wish I knew how to do deals like this well with RE and had all the contacts.

Sounds like you have a great base for real estate investing!
