When buying a co-op, you're buying shares that entitle you to a proprietary lease of a specific unit (you don't have a separate tax bill). 

I'm trying to remove a co-borrower from my FHA loan.

If you keep the previous owner as a co-host, you can keep the reviews.

I would love to connect man, I am a Co-GP doing IR and capital raising for MF syndications and have a ton of connections in that area that might be able to help take down that beast :) 

You can also get a co-borrower to help you qualify for more and bring in some money for the down payment.

As a beginner, you can learn a lot from your uncle with a few rentals in another state or a co-worker that's on their second house hack.

You can look for a co-signer as well.Once you meet your service requirements, you can use your VA loan benefit.

However, to answer your other question, you can go in on a house together with someone that has a VA  loan I believe as a co-borrower you can. 

@James McGovern, I suspect the auction will be as-is-where-is and you are not entitled to anything other than the deed.If you email me the address, I can run a co-star report which typically identifies the property manager.

So the bank asks for a co-signer.
