I've read the J-boxes also need to be sealed somehow but I'm not sure how.

Hit me up if you need anything.

Currently landlord pays for all utilities, is a system/product/device that can be installed to the water meter that tracks the usage of water through each unit so I would be able to bill the tenants separately?

I wish to make it official and get them on a lease. 

Hey Everyone,I have heard it said on the podcasts before that the reason you are required to live in a house hack for at least a year is because that is how long it would take you to qualify for another mortgage to go buy your next one.

The reason is the rent-to-price ratio is good so you can cash flow, and most of the West side doesn’t have a Point of sale inspection which is really annoying.

I think you are definitely on the exact right track with your thinking - have you put all this side by side in excel (very basic excel "modeled out")>? 

In realms where shadows veil the light,I shift possessions overnight.Deferring burdens none can see,I weave the threads of property.A spectral path to trade unseen,What method moves behind the screen?"

Sounds like a good deal and you must be handy to have done all that work.

@Abu S Syed What Questions do you have about DSCR mortgage loans?
