However, the thought of going into debt to start this adventure has caused my wife to not see my dream.

I can share insights and deep dive into each market for you. 

I’m evaluating a former car wash property in Metro Detroit:Just under 1 acre lot~4,000 sq ft building with multiple bays (9 ft clearance overhead doors)Zoned C4 “Multi Use Commercial”My concept is to convert it into multi-tenant flex space for auto-related businesses (detailing, tinting, wraps, light mods, etc.).I’d love to hear from anyone who has repurposed a car wash (or other single-use building) into something else.

It looks like this is a new acquisition, so I'm wondering if the neighborhood can support the rent rate? 

My boys are my main reason for getting into real estate.

Hope this helps.

A lot of new investors run into the “what’s the best first move?”

Quote from @Efrain Deleon jr: Hello everyone, my name is Efrain.I'm new to all this and I've been looking in to getting in the real estate game for a short time now.

Love that you’re already diving into BRRRR and exploring DSCR loans—I’m looking at those options too as I grow.
