Hi Dylan - I am also new to RE investing but have a lot of background in building a solid financial base.

The equity and profit would all be split based on money put into the deal, so I would have 20% equity and would be entitled to 20% off the net profit.Here is my issue: both of them are pretty set on holding the property free and clear (10+ years) because their primary goal is solid cash flow and secondary income to their businesses which can be seasonal.

It has cash flow of only about $200-$300.00 a month right now, however May-October I expect cash flow mo. to be about $900.00-$1200 mo. this is just based on AirDNA which we know is not very accurate.Again, im looking for any scenarios that you all could come up with for me that I could present to my builder/friend, that would be equitable for both of us if we entereed a partnership or JV.Thak you in advance!

Airdna is not just based off algorithm but actually data pulled directly from Airbnb/VRBO, which hosts agree to sharing when they list on the sites.

Here is a scenario I’m basing my question on.

Use your off base stipends to pay for your mortgage.

Pay the bill yourself, then reimburse yourself by charging the tenants based on a formula.

My team is Allentown-based I would absolutely love to help you start your investing journey.

That will allow you to quickly analyze deals simply based on the purchase price and the total potential rent, without having to calculate every single cost for each property.

As a host you can adjust your pricing based on demand.
