Hey Patrick,

I just recently purchased my 2nd home with VA loan, kind of.

I ended up having to use a combination of CALVET and VA loan because my second home was more that the limit allowed by VA. If the pricewould have been $20k less I would have been good with just a VA loan.

So depending if you're looking at a larger more expensive house, I wouldn't refi the 1st one as I'm sure your interest rate is pretty low, plus adding closing cost would add more $ being refinanced.

Using someone else's money is always better, that using your own.

 Just my two cents.

So I have a SFH that is managed and thus I get a 1099 at the end of the year to use during taxes. I just bought and moved in to my new place that had an attached mother in law suite that I have closed off. I was able to rent it out and have just been depositing the money into a seperate account I have. Is there anything I need to do diffently or a better way for me to move forward. Suite is bringing in 1/3 of total expenses. Any other suggestions would also be appreciated.

Hey everyone, I’m located out here in the High Desert, cito of Victorville. Career federal employee trying to make the move to real estate investor.
