I just got my Real Estate license and am pretty happy to have passed on the first try.

My name is Ken, I'm brand new to real estate investing, still trying to learn more about the in and outs.  

Additional costs will creep in and costs seem to go up faster than rents, so I would sell and try to otherwise optimize the VA loan. 

Best way is to just try to break it down piece by piece.Water- how is it being delivered to the homes. 

Since this is a post about our loan shop, I'll highlight that we are a small loan shop (30 employees), family-owned just trying to get more clients by placing their loans well and treating customers well.

MLS deals are out there already listed and marketed and it's a waste to try and wholesale them.

It may be worth having an experienced professional helping you and you could always try to get the seller to pay your agent’s fees.

(It was Hollywood and everybody has dogs)2) Somebody tried selling the appliances that came with the unit which included the fridge, dishwasher, stove & microwave.3) We were recently affected by the fires and had to evacuate, some tenants refused to evacuate even after police forced them to because they were "tougher than the fire".Have you heard of those horror stories about tenants completely trashing apartments and feces all over the apartment?

Try to find out what the seller's pain point is.

Pointing out the BS that people try to peddle.
