Aimee Tarte Does it hurt credit to constantly BRRRR?

It would make sense to me that if a person wasn't doing their investing through a business entity that it could affect their DTI and thus their ability to take on more debt.Even if your projected rental income is included in the calculation it seems unlikely to me that you'd be able to find a property that cashflows enough to not affect your DTI.I guess to provide a more specific example say your current DTI is 25% ($2000/month with $500 in debt).If you were to buy a house that rents for a $1000/month and the mortgage payment is only $750, that brings your monthly income up to 3000/month and your monthly debt to 1250 so your DTI would jump to ~42%.Obviously that is a drastic example because that is not much income to start so the change is more drastic than I imagine would be for most on this website, but still the change is still there.
