your owner occ loan should be done at todays rate what your bank quoted you was commercial terms and not even good ones..

Move into a house that needs help on an owner occupied loan, fix it up over the next year, move on to the next.  

Basically, you're saying your intent is not to move in, but with owner-occupant loans for lower downpayments, you will sign a statement certifying your intent is to occupy the property. 

You also have the options of the 2 + 1 which is a 2F with a boarder unit that an owner can live in, but likely can't rent after you leave so it's only a temporary solution depending on how stringent the municipality is.Your VA gives you lots of options, but you won't cash flow if you use at 0 percent down because rates are too high.

@Brett JurgensDenver property owners can reinvest without selling by borrowing against equity or selling with a 1031 exchange.

Why "owner financing" clients? 

I am evicting a previous owner from a property that I won at a tax auction in CT.

It's crazy to think some RE agents are suggesting owners to put their houses up cause fed funds reduced, they completely misunderstand but I let the market do what it does-- market.

It is a very saturated market here as well so definitely worth really digging in to the numbers and finding as many owners here to talk with beforehand.

Have a good lease with "teeth" - late fees for late rent, occupancy rules, pet rules and etc. - and do not violate your own lease by being too easy, or very quickly you will not have any lease at all and your tenant(s) will do whatever they want at your expense.
