@Joseph MuleroTo boost your rent plan and make more money in the medium-length rent market, think about these steps: slowly add furniture to the new place while you stay in your current home, pick cheap furniture, use a credit card with good terms, look into loan options like personal loans or home equity credit lines, try out the market by listing the place with few furniture pieces, aim for easy-to-change furniture for flexibility, and talk to pros like real estate agents or home decorators.

I'm personally looking at the 2-4 space right now as I think there should be good opportunity there to make the numbers work in high-value markets

Q3: My personal rentals have not, but I bought in Lawton, OK because that was my duty station.

The person you mentioned has no formal credit background.

The only PITIA paid from personal account is for a personal residence.

My personal return is fairly complicated with Trusts, partnerships, W-2s, and several K1s.

DSCR Loans are going to be strictly business-purpose 1st lien loans - so something like this with a closed end second or HELOC is going to be a different product entirely.

Recently she changed her will and named us as personal representatives and is leaving us her property when she passes(crazy I know).

The notice of a tax sale may not get to the right person to pay it off. 

This is an extremely important point, because if there is no clear rules defined by each person, then it can be confusing and lead to anger or resentment between partners.
