That may mean keeping yourself mentally motivated until capital/financing options exist to allow you to jump in.Personally in the beginning I'd recommend looking into DSCR loans.

I joined the platform because I'm really interested in hearing firsthand about the tangible needs of property owners in the real estate world.I’d love to ask: what tools or resources do you wish existed (or worked better than they currently do) to help keep recurring home costs low—whether that’s property taxes, insurance, utilities, or something else?

So many groups that were started in the last 10 years, simply didn't even know the risks existed on their deals. 

I got comfortable taking that risk because I had the existing tenant, which would almost cover the PITI.So far, the inherited tenant has been excellent. 

Has anyone here refinanced existing rentals using DSCR to unlock equity and grow faster?

When it comes to finding buyers for turnkey deals, tapping into existing investor communities can be a huge help.

This amounts to lost opportunity because if you had purchased RE, at the closing it can start producing return.5) ADUs detract from the existing structure whether this is privacy, a garage, or just yard space.6) this is related to number 1, but there are many more buyers looking to purchase homes for their family than there are RE investors looking to purchase small unit count properties.

Here’s what I tell BP investors to look for:Middle-market pricing exists: $900–$1,800 for a W-2 + 1–2 rentals is reasonable when it includes proper schedules (E, 4562/Depreciation, 8582 passive losses, 6198 at-risk, state returns, and a quick QBID/199A check).Unbundle strategy: Keep the return flat-fee and add advisory hourly ($250- $350/hr) or a one-time “strategy-lite” review ($500–$1,200) for STR/material participation, grouping, and when a cost seg actually pencils.If you want, e-mail me your facts (units, rents, W-2/K-1, state) and I’ll tell you exactly what tier you should be quoted—and what to skip. 

It required a deep understanding of financials and analyzing the existing numbers of a property.
