My wife and I recently moved to Lynchburg, VA for work and will be living here for approximately a year and a half.

There's always a shortage of deals in the market, specially now.Good news is that once you gain some traction, you'll be able to buy better lists, a power dialer and even hire a VA to help you find qualified seller leads (I run a call center for Real Estate).

There are some forms of income that do not require any receipt to use which are some of the above (full time job just offer letter or ownership of newly acquired rental property (lease agreement + security deposit/rent proof only).If you dont plan to go back to full doc then stay in the no income/state world and the premium for these products varies between 1-2.5% higher than full doc fannie/freddie/FHA/VA rates but pros and cons right?

I’m looking to become an investor in the KC area and I was curious if I should pull the trigger on a multi family or single family home with the VA loan?

We bought a house in North Virginia in 2019 with a VA loan for $510,000 and zero down, at 2.875%.

Modulars are a little better because its easier to get FHA and VA financing so they can sell quicker to a wider group of buyers.FHA can be refinance down the road so the MIP - mortgage insurance premium similar to PMI but more expensive. 

Are you thinking of starting your investment journey locally in Virginia, or exploring other markets?

In the DMV area, there may be differences with how you would approach investing in different cities so maybe attending different meet ups in different areas, e.g investing in DC would be different from cities in Virginia, Maryland etc.

They do both FHA and VA Streamlines.

If you have more of your VA availability left you may have options outside of a primary residence to use the loan as a benefit of your service to our country.
