They have an app that you can run comps on, play with rehab budgets, do ARV calculations as you drive for dollars and apply for the loan on the spot.

Hello, For anyone that is not well versed in rehab estimation, how do you go about calculating rehab costs if you are not going through a realtor to find deals?

At the same time, I prefer to minimize liability, though I’m not a seasoned investor.Is this one of those calculated risks that investors eventually become comfortable with, or should I prioritize limiting liability from the outset?

If a student loan is in repayment, or scheduled to begin within 12 months from the date of VA loan closing, the lender must consider the anticipated monthly obligation in the loan analysis and utilize the payment established by calculating each loan at a rate of five percent of the outstanding balance divided by 12 months.

Stop denying the facts.So, are you the guy that when teacher ask's what 1+1 equals, you ask for a calculator????

BiggerPockets also has a calculator to analyze deals, and I highly recommend you start this as soon as possible, even if you are not ready to buy.

Someone I know bought a ranch to use as a short term rental property in 2021 for $1.7 million.Engineers did a virtual site visit, they were able to assign a value of $347,000 to either 5-7-15 year assets that were eligible for depreciation.In 2021, the bonus depreciation amount that you could take was 100%.This means that the owner could immediately deduct the full amount of eligible property in the year it was placed in service, rather than depreciating it over time.With that in mind, he took the full $347K deduction in his FIRST YEAR of ownership to offset taxable income from rentals.This was roughly ~20% of his purchase price.It was a big win for him.In 2024, the bonus depreciation rate is 60% so the calculation would be different.That said, you can still save and defer a ton.
