Protect Your DTI
- Protect your debt-to-income (DTI) ratio to scale your real estate portfolio.
- Maintain a close relationship with your lender to understand your borrowing power and its influencing factors.
Rental Income Differences
- Long-term rental income can be counted with a lease in hand.
- Short-term rentals require at least one tax return filed, not necessarily a full year.
Short-Term Rental Reporting
- Ensure your CPA correctly marks short-term rentals on your tax return (code 3, not 1).
