The variable costs can fluctuate more year to year.

That's the only variable?

There are also interest only, or ARM options that help keep payments low/cashflow higher during a variable market.

However, past performance of appreciation is not necessarily indicative of future gains due to variables within each market.

Each property is going to have its variables throughout the city.

I'd say it depends on a bunch of variable.

As a lender, we know how many variables go into getting specific rates.

There are different variables that go into it but you have the ability to buy a duplex, triplex, or quadplex with your VA loan with no money down and become an instant landlord.

Hey @Jordan Dzubak, so a quick look on VRBO showed quite a few rentals on the lake.The average nightly rates is highly variable but that is dependent on size and location of course.What you can do is drill down on VRBO and AirBNB to see what is out there.

This option comes down to the investor's risk tolerance since you will likely leverage your primary home at a variable rate.3) The BRRRR method since most hard money lenders will allow you to acquire distress payments with as little as 10% down and grant you access to rehab funding via a bridge loan.
