Also if this home came from a different manager and this is the new manager the tenant may be using this as a way to delay payments (acting confused of who to pay). 

VA Loan specifically, if I were to refinance from VA to conventional I'm guessing I would have to pay 3.5% minimal of the new loan?

I was looking at this option for the fact that new homes would have very minimal maintenance requirements for the first few years, allowing me to invest more funds into other properties.

You may want to consider paying cash for the next property then using delayed financing to pull your cash right back out. 

Thats an easy cash flow and minimal work.

You don't need to spend 5k for a specialist to remove, the likelihood of something going airborne is very minimal, unless you run it through a wood chipperAnd I'm talking about getting it out before excavation, if I was excavating, I would already had to get the asbestos test. 

This is/was pretty common in applications where you want to minimize sound transfer (like a condo). 

Due to the recent housing crises, the project saw delays and costs go up.

The only challenge we endured while being in contract was a delay in obtaining tenant contact info until the day after closing.

@Colleen F.It’s a condo with an hoa, so my long term capital expenses I believe are fairly minimal since the hoa covers almost everything structurally and behind the walls.
