Your best bet are still the Townships - they have the best schools in the county with the least restrictions. 

I am betting for the appreciation of the house in the next years because I don't think I can cash flow in the first years.  

Reviewing this will help you get an understanding of who they are. 

I believe the best bet to get a good deal is to target pre-foreclosures with good chunk of equity.

If you don't want the property any more a 1031 is probably your best bet, unless it's got a huge capital gains capture in which case you could just take your tax lumps and collect your funds. 

Assumption by an EntityUnfortunately, assuming a VA loan directly through a legal entity (such as an LLC, corporation, or trust) is typically not allowed because:Primary Residence Requirement: VA loans are designed for owner-occupied properties, meaning the assuming borrower must intend to live in the property as their primary residence.Credit Review: The VA and lender require the assuming party to undergo a personal credit and income review to ensure repayment ability, which entities cannot satisfy.3.

Here's the bet: - "Unemployment" is not about to shoot up.

Just call a local title company, find one with good reviews, and ask them to give you an idea of the fees.
