@LaTonya G WhiteWell, sure you need to have remaining VA eligibility to use the loan again. 

@Eli KingThe seller would need to contact the servicer of their loan and confirm it’s assumable.You would then need to qualify with that servicer plus have the funds to cover the difference between what remains on the loan and the purchase price for the home.

Now I see that county posted list of exceeded funds and for this property there is $20k-$5k= $15k remaining balance and bidder can claim.

The current owner of the property has the property under land contract with 4 remaining years on contract.

I don't have the remaining 30k to pay off the mortgage. 

However, with my 1 short term rental I am struggling to remain confident that this is the right strategy as when something does happen it seems I lose at least a couple days with them dispatching and then following up.  

The remaining 80% of agents barely sell 1 house in 2years due to many reasons like lack of commitment to the profession, poor or average skills, improper training, lack of tools and mentorship to be a great agent, etc.At the end of the day, you will always get what you pay for. 

I said it 10 years ago when I was on the BP podcast, and it remains true today....the biggest mistake investors make is an inability to properly judge risk.

Sure, some remain oblivious -- do with them what you will.

Hi James, The demand in FL still remains high for investor buyers due to location and elevated rental rates.
