For a direct answer, we need to know more about your income and liabilities- you'll still need to hit sub 45% DTI to get a conventional loan, regardless of your equity position or cash flow. 

So, we still have personal items in our basement and garage that we need to clean out before renter ready, along with painting etc.

We're the first company specifically serving Provincetown that Airbnb welcomed into their official Experienced Co-Hosting program.The prices in Provincetown have truly accelerated since we purchased property back in 2018.Lots of folks like us who got in before the pandemic are cash-flowing and we've seen sharp increases in value.

I would live in the property myself for ~3 years give or take and the goal would be once I move out to have the property fully rented and cash flowing. 

This is a predictable cash flow play because housing affordability worsens daily.2.

., I would say start developing a relationship with small jobs like pressure washing or dryer vent cleaning. 

My thoughts are 1) I will have a fixed rate and not worry about it changing every 5 years thus helping me control my expenses a little better (of course aiming to secure a good rate whenever the rates hopefully come down), and 2) it will be amortized over 30 years and if I get a good rate, then my cash flow should increase by a decent amount. 

My other 3 houses are cash flowing $3900.

I'm so glad to see folks cleaning up some of these properties in Dayton.

They are also usually more durable than fabric chairs and easier to clean.
