We've taken over from several other property managers, and the bar is pretty low in my opinion.

You can have more than one property owned with a VA loan as long as it is under your total allotment.

@Jaycee Greene I want to house hack for my first property whether that be SF or Multi Family, there is not too many options where I am for multi family though unfortunately. 

@Coty LeBlanc I originally used it as a set it and forget it tool and it was better than not having I suppose, but then I really dug into training and learning and I saw 50% increase in one property and 20% in the other.

Personally, I have found occasional private lending to be a good networking tool and lead generator for what I'm really looking for - properties I can develop. 

Can they prove how long it takes to rent a vacant property?

Or your can buy multiple properties with small mortgages.

I am getting 3 estimates on the property in the next week but could also do some of the work between my dad and me.

**Off-Market Deals and Representation**: If a broker brings you an off-market deal, it’s typically expected that they represent you on that transaction, handling both sides.

I sold a property last year that required the owner to get a certificate of nonconformity to be a legal two family.
