On each property we buy we put in permanent above ground markers for the surveyed points.  

The questions that I would ask as a private lending partner would be as follows:o Are you a foreign national of the United States or do you have a green card (permanent resident alien)?

However, it would be a 1-time reimbursement/discount, not a permanent one. 

Probably 99% of the properties in Texas never redeem....so you get a big FAT government guaranteed 0% interest rate.   

I secured a low mortgage interest rate during COVID, and hoping experts in this forum could recommend VA Loan business strategies as I would like to convert our permanent home into rental property and transition into another home.1. 

Fat fingers, lol!

I recently came across this "FHA construction to permanent Loan" option which seems almost too good to be true, so I wanted to get some input on how this works and where I might be able to find a lender.

I am looking at a lot of land and using the FHA Construction to permanent loan to buy the land and build a house.

I use nothing but the poison.Nice thing is you can keep it out permanently and never have to clear traps.

You're thinking far further steps ahead and weathering the volatility to reap likely more a fat-tails esque reward which likely does happen at the turn of the next inflation wave(not this secondary one coming up).From 08-16 you could do the former, from 17 fwd it's best to the do the latter.
