Hey BP Community,I’m fairly new to the real estate world but would like to jump in and get a head start on building wealth for an early retirement.I’m currently in my early 20’s and I’m interested in house hacking with my partner by the end of the year as a first step in investing.So far this year I have been working on building up my financial literacy and some knowledge on real estate through books and the BP podcasts.

I've included an example below to help illustrate this.So different lenders have different rates (which do vary even for DSCR loans) but these are factors they all consider.See example below:DSCR < 1Principal + Interest = $1,700Taxes = $350, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $50Total PITIA = $2200Rent = $2000DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2000/2200 = 0.91Since the DSCR is 0.91, we know the expenses are greater than the income of the property.DSCR >1Principal + Interest = $1,500Taxes = $250, Insurance = $100, Association Dues = $25Total PITIA = $1875 Rent = $2300DSCR = Rent/PITIA = 2300/1875 = 1.23DSCR lenders generally let you vest either individually or as an LLC.
