As long as you’re building with future hurricanes (wind and flood) in mind you can ensure that you’re prepared for future storms.  

Condo or house I am open to either, as long as it can be a reliable rental. 

With real estate, you have to make sure each property is functioning at full capacity or you’ll be losing money.You can analyze properties and be pretty sure (as long as you don't rationalize bad deals into good ones) what your numbers will be. 

Don't worry about what it was listed for previously, as long as it works within your calculations. 

As long as you keep track of everything and report correctly you should be good to go.I'm always in the camp to Keep It Simple Stupid when it comes to running stuff through LLCs until you hit a certain critical mass of assets and/or income.Hope this helps!

Larger owners tend to analyze market rents monthly or even weekly and manage rents (or incentives) the best way they can.As long as the owner is engaged, the chance of adjusting rents is higher.

I basically just told them when they moved in that any drama that may arise from them sharing the house is between them and has nothing to do with me (as long as the house/people aren't being physically harmed).If you do end up renting to veterans I think your best bet to ensure everyone gets along is to just make one lease for all 4 bedrooms.

Hard Money or DSCR is the way you want to go.Shouldn't be an issue where you are as long as your intention is for investment purposes and have the capital to put down.

Hi Shakti, As a lender we do work with US-visa holders as long as they have an established credit score in the US.

Likewise, if the rents appraise lower on the 1007, most lenders will use the highest of the lease agreement or 1007 as long as there is no more than a 25% variance.
