Since you’ll be saving your own living expenses by living in one of the units as required by the VA (to the best of my knowledge.) pretend you are paying rent and it should make your numbers look much better. 

Quote from @Michael Calvey: Airbnb just dropped their Q4 numbers, and something caught my eye that hosts need to pay attention to: while they're raking in $2.5B in revenue (up 12%), they're dumping massive resources into platform "improvements" - 535 of them to be exact.As someone who follows the hosting space closely, here's what's interesting: they're clearly betting big on AI and tech upgrades, but what does this mean for hosts' bottom lines?

But to date, I've just set my rents at a rate that accounts for me having to pay the water bill - and informed the residents that each year I'll increase the rent based upon my expenses (including water), so keeping the bill down helps me to help them.But one problem this could cause is if increasing the rent to cover the water bill then places your rent above the market rate.

How can a PMC afford to do more than the bare minimum, when owners only want to pay the bare minimum?

One of the things I do Is I pay the monthly $20 for ChatGPT, this way I can teach it what I want, of course you have to double check it but I will have it create entire social media posting calendars as well as topcs for me to use.

Ultimately, it comes down to underwriting and the ability for the property, and you, to afford to pay the monthly expense of the loan. 

I'm NOW doing Rent-To-Own to sell off my mobile homes.  10K down.  12 years to pay. 

If it was 20 years ago and they had the same name, its gonna be an uphill battle to go back now after someone has been paying taxes on a property and probably upgraded it during that time.

That is why a lot builders buy a few of their own homes and pay "all cash" after they are built to establish sold comps and set the market.If you have any questions feel free to reach out it can be tough trying to figure out the first few steps and what is required.

You would pay $950k for that property because it’s a deal based on today’s value?
