I find each needs to be treated very differently.

Treat this as a separate business and yourself as a client.

I feel like a lot of deal makers forget that we are offering a service to our passive money people and the better we treat them, the better we will do in the long run. 

In general, how do you treat groups of people that are applying?

Treat BP like a one-credit college course. 4) Get involved in your local REIA. 

You do need to treat it as a house hack but like Eric said it does have to pass VA inspection. 

They are treated as two individual properties and not as one.

Treat it like you're interviewing them on their tactics - because maybe you are.

I know entrance into the Property Management industry is not something that should be taken lightly, but I plan on treating all properties strictly as business and this part of the puzzle huge for my overall vision. 

The number of missed payment is the biggest hit to your credit, but an actual foreclosure or short sale is another hit.As to financing again later, at least fannie mae treats a BK followed by a foreclosure as "One event" being the date of the BK discharge.
