If you need help with landlord laws, house backing strategies, or traditional MTR investing specific to New Jersey happy to help.

If you are just starting out, this is for you:When you buy an investment property, it is treated differently than a house you are going to live in. 

Illinois--Single family house 360k asking- built-1920s-told that it will need repairs.

I think arbitrage is a great way to do STR with the high interest rates / inflated housing prices we are experiencing now.

If you're tax bill is $6-8k (minus the 1031 fees), surely you can make that up by taking multiple swings over a longer period of time.OR pursue some sort of owner occupied strategy with that cash if you can swing a live in flip or house hack.

Our next big objective is to eliminate our housing expenses by purchasing a triplex or fourplex using my VA benefits.

I have seen this same house that is vacant (all the classic signs) I have located the owner ( I have not reached out to her yet).

You love the house and there is a likely opportunity that you may be moving back to the Austin area.  

The same goes for your credit score, which tells us nothing about your ability to flip a house and pay us back.In sum: Experience, Integrity, a Killer deal.

We have two rentals rent by room and a househack duplex.
