Does anybody know of any stipulations regarding using the VA homeloan to invest in your first rental property?

This stipulation is agreed to when purchasing an OO property with FHA or conventional financing.

But like I said in the original post a Refi is out of the question due to the wife's stipulation.

.- Furthermore, (apparently - i'm still confirming this with my prop mgmt company), our contract with the HAP Voucher Program stipulates that we have no recourse against the tenants for the HUD Programs' failure to pay "For reasons outside of their control". 

A local REIA was circulating a contract with the written stipulation that the buyer could advertise the property.

Currently the lease doesn’t stipulate payment method(s) so that’s definitely something I’ll look to add with the next tenant.

In that case I would choose the HELOC with the stipulation that the reno will increase rents high enough for the extra income to pay off the HELOC within 2 years time.

There may be further benefit, depending on your situation, for that U.S.A. corporation be a 100% child entity of a Canadian corporation: permitting favourable tax treatment of retained earnings paid from child to parent.As already stipulated, this is not an DIY area of real estate, seek out the guidance of an experienced professional.

Rather advertising free utilities, you stipulate you will send them a bill each month on the overages to be included in the rent.

Has been rented out for 4 yrs,Has over 79k in equity but these banks have so many rules and stipulations it's tiring.Who do you guys use?
