The average numbers that I see floating around are anywhere from 10-20% increase in home value with the addition of one more full bath.

I certainly don't know your market, @Chait Borade, but a quick look on Zillow shows 2/1s averaging ~$1300/month in rent.

The tipping point would be when the average American can't get basics like food, medicine, or shelter and is forced to choose between starvation and death or violence.

By the time the average person pays for rent, groceries, medical insurance, car payment, etc. there is usually very little left. 

I am very curious to know, if you guys could walk me thru the process it be very appropriate. 1) Rental Property Cash Flow Analysis- Due Diligence: a) The first step to buying a multifamily home is deciding on the right neighborhood to invest in.b) Property condition: Take into account how much time, money and work the property will need in order to be rent-ready. c) Rent roll: Look at the current rents and compare them to the average rents in the area to see what the property should rent for and can help influence your buying decision.d) Revenue & expenses: Look at what rental revenues are coming in and what the current expenses are and see if it makes sense, remember to add in your approximate carrying costs to see if you will be cash-flow positive.e) Vacancy rate: Look for a vacancy rate below 10% and see how long each unit is vacant per year so you can figure that into your carrying costs. f) Loan calculation: Add your loan calculation into your Analysis.2) Work with a RE agent.3) Choose the Right Lender. 

By feeding the HELOC with all my rents and other income sources, the average daily balance stays much lower and the result is a mortgage that gets paid off way sooner.Have you heard of a HELOC credit line being shut down prematurely?

If I want to get all of my costs back within 4 years (or less), I can say what % return "I got", but since percentages lie, if I said ahead of time that I needed to get an average return of that same number, I couldn't give you a specific %return I needed to do...since over a 4 year period, I can go through a number of different combinations if annual % returns...and get a different answer in dollars at the end.If 3 investors started with the same dollar amount (say $100k) and they had different annual % returns for the next 5 years, they would all end up with a different dollar amount at the end...even if the net percentage was the same for all three.Investor A:  +10%,+10%,+10%,+10%,+10%Investor B: +30%,-10%,+40%,-20%,+10%Investor C: +80%,-60%,+70%,-50%,+10%All three started with the same $100k.  

But In the average market range in Boise area (around $360k), we still- as of March 25- have some homes and investment properties getting offers on day one and multiples sometimes. 

@Ron Fletcher Here is life after COVID 19 ...The truth is that life and future of the average American family has been screwed for many many years to come.
