In addition to conventional loans and FHA loans, if either you or your wife are veterans, the VA also has a rehab program.I'd be happy to discuss my rehab experience both as an investor and as a mortgage broker, and at least help you think through your options. 

Just curious what others are paying and how their experiences have been with their current management, thank you!

Any advice or shared experience would be great.

Hi everyone,I’m looking to dive into the real estate market here in the Des Moines/Metro area and would love to connect with experienced investors, agents, or professionals who are willing to share their insights.I’m particularly interested in learning about your experiences in this market—what’s worked for you, lessons learned, and any advice you’d have for someone getting started.

Based on my 20+ years of real estate experience, I’d say renting the condo might not be the best option—$2,000/month rent minus $800 in condo fees leaves you with just $1,200 before taxes and maintenance, and seniors' condos can be tricky to rent.

Rent control in the bay area can be extreme as many areas have rent control in excess of the state mandated rent controlIn general experience RE investors are not choosing to add a single ADU in single family zoned areas.  

@Kang-Li Cheng Can you expand on your experience with Doorvest?

What you want is an agent with experience who knows how to negotiate, watch your back, navigate difficult situations, understand contracts and law, provides an objective cross-check, etc.

If you’d like to dive deeper into my experience and why I’m bullish on Detroit, I'm happy to share some resources if you want to DM me.

Does anyone have experience with the BRRRR loans?
