Suddenly,rent checks due on the 5th started arriving Florida from Ohio on the 22nd,each one clearly post-marked 5th of the month.So we couldn't charge late fees.For 8 consecutive months.After I figured it was either the USPS had been taken over by aliens or there was a boyfriend that worked at the post office,I changed the lease terms to require only cashier's checks.All checks have miraculously started arriving on time again since that change was made.

Yes you can as long as your father will live in the home as his primary residence and you put enough down to cover your portion of the loan that VA will not guarantee.Here are the VA guidelines for calculating the down payment.VA calculates the guaranty as described in the table below.Step Action1 Divide the total loan amount by the number of borrowers.2 Multiply the result by the number of veteran-borrowers who will beusing entitlement on the loan.There is usually only one veteran borrower, in which case the resultof this Step is the same as the result of Step 1.3 Calculate the maximum potential guaranty on the portion of the loanarrived at in Step 2 (as if that portion was the total loan).Use the maximum guaranty table in section 4 of chapter 3 of thishandbook.4 VA will guarantee the lesser of:• the maximum potential guaranty amount arrived at in Step 3, or• the combined available entitlement of all veteran-borrowers.5 VA makes a charge to the veteran-borrower’s available entitlementin the amount of the guaranty.If more than one veteran is involved, VA divides the entitlementcharge equally between them if possible.

Upon arrival we had to cleanup two dump truck loads of garage that they left behind in the apartment and basement. 

Guests had to sign an extensive waiver before arrival.

I want to arrive early enough to not miss out anything and leave after the closing ceremony.

I prefer incoming rents arrive at the same time every month.

You arrive at the same result mathematically, however you arrive at it using an incorrect method.

I would add that there may be (4) also, failure of investment strategy.some of these can be interlocked, for example if a investment fails due to its high risk nature, and the investment sponsor did not inform the investors of the risk, then some aspect of (5) would exist; if not fraud certainly misrepresentation.another example would be if the investment sponsor relates a history of experience, knowledge and success to entice you to invest, but for a large part his experience, knowledge and success are in reality not what he has stated, then we again arrive at (5) misrepresentation.Please understand that its easy and common for even very sophisticated investors to make bad investment, and even very sophisticated investors to get fooled and seduced by con artists.also please understand that with only a limited number of exceptions, the real estate guru industry is full of gurus who are not investment experts, they are in fact more likely to be marketing/sales experts, or front men for these marketing/sales organizations.  

This system, today, was evolved over a great many decades to arrive at all these refinement's for buyers and sellers alike.     

I recently had a guest cancel on the day of arrival due to heavy rain in their area (not mine)!!!
