When I left, apart from the normal political shenanigans, it was very well run with a strong government presence, military renters, and organic business growth that wasn't dependent on tech cycles, credit crunches, etc.

It's not an item for debate, it's a fact as shown and proven in the data. 

They will inspect the project at those milestones and evaluate all the line items in draw requests before authorizing dispersal of funds. 

One often overlooked item for those who invest in Ohio is not filing the locality returns.Ohio is a unique state where they require locality returns to be filed in addition to the state return.

Make sure the contractor is tracking long lead items to keep the schedule on track.

We link everything in the spreadsheet so if anything breaks or needs replacing, we can reference that sheet and buy the same item.

As has been mentioned already, it takes too long to get the item repaired, jeopardizing rents.

Tenant still seems to believe I am responsible for their personal items.

Some real quick items here:VA Loans are for Primary HomesYou can use VA Loans for 1-4 unit properties (House Hacking)VA Loans have 0% downpayment (most of the time)You can have more than 1 VA loan (some people don't know that)VA Loans do carry a "funding fee" which is like a little "tax" to write the loan, but it is waived if you are a disabled veteran.VA Loans do not have PMI (and that's a huge benefit for us)VA Loans also have a very streamlined refinance feature (called a VA IRRRRL) which makes it super easy to refinance if rates were to fall (hopefully that will occur in the future)VA Loans can also be used by a surviving spouse.The VA may not give us the best health benefits but they can certainly get us into debt!

To my understanding too, you can rent your property out while you wait for the inspection and results, and if you miss some items on the inspection they're pretty easy to work with to get it remediated (In my inspection I was missing a smoke detector in the basement and they let me send photos when it was installed).
