The second Property Management company I never could understand the payouts and the payments was never correct.

I asked the GC as part of the conditional last $20k payment to transfer the title to me after his mortgage note default since I'd paid him $40k in good faith for work reportedly completed but needed rework.3.)

But that also depends on your down payment- putting only around 20-25% down is hard to have a profitable STVR.Ultimately with STR v LTR, I'd be mainly curious about your intended use of the property. 

Stop reading if you want.2) I couldn’t guess what “There is a 6 months of grace period before interest payment begins” means.3) They call their $3555 charge a “Loan Fee,” stated a few lines up as 2%. 2% of $235,000 (loan amount) is $4470.4) Do you seriously believe the loan fee, “… IS 100% REFUNDABLE IF THERE IS ANY DEFAULT FROM THEPART OF THE LENDER OR IF THE BORROWER CHOOSES TO TERMINATE THE LOAN.”5) It’s okay to pay an appraiser directly.

I guess to get a definite answer I'll have to cold call to get see if all these people are behind on their payment or it's just a standard practice behind some salesmen!

Payment is $1780.

If you pay two years' worth of property taxes in 2025 (January and December), both payments are deductible on your 2025 return, potentially reducing your taxable rental income significantly.

Yes, my banks require a 1.2 DSCR debt service coverage ratio, meaning they want to see rent 20% higher than the mortgage payment.

Run the numbers as if you leased the property from him at 10% x the value of the home( not including 1,000 acres) in lease payments @60% occupancy.

So I'm strongly considering adding a handful of these to my buy & hold portfolio.I understand that there's no "risk-free" method to acquiring these properties subto, but have any of you had success over the long-term acquiring properties with VA loans attached?
