I currently have an interest rate of 10% from Live Oak Bank.

The turnover rate requires effort to continue finding renters.

The purchase price, loan amount, your interest rate, whether you need mortgage insurance, your homeowner's insurance cost, property taxes, and your current monthly debt obligations all factor into your DTI.  

You should have a fairly favourable interest rate though don't you?

As someone that's traveled (13 year Army veteran), I saw the value and still think prices here are extremely reasonable for all the natural beauty and access to amenities.Interest rates have priced a lot of first time home buyers out of the markets.

If the seller charges a rate below the AFR, it creates a tax liability on their end. 

Hey Ryan,Most lenders can typically offer up to 80% Loan-to-Value (LTV) with interest rates ranging from 7-8.5%.

Great nightly rates and occupancy.

At current rates, it would be extremely difficult to have maximum leverage and have any property pay for itself through normal rental income. 

In the end, regardless of your teacher, your success is always dependent on what YOU do with what you learn.
