Go online, get it done in 20 minutes, you'll hear back in a week.

Look up the owner's contact info online and send out your letters.  

Does anyone out there have any useful tips to get going?

I've also talked to a couple other lenders (including a hard money lender) in regards to another property and all they need is for me to fill out their online application to get the pre-approval.

But what I was most proud of was seeing so many people out....stores and restaurants opening (my favorite sushi place was already back up)...and just the return of life and "back to business" attitude that makes Houston such a great city.I already experienced contractors trying to jack up prices...some legit as I know getting materials is more expensive. 

I have a game plan but I would really like running it by someone alittle smarter than me just to see if it is realistic or if someone tried doing this and had some tips.

I've had new VA clients this year miss out on properties in multiple offer situations by asking the seller to pay their closing costs (against my firm advice to the contrary) because of something they read online or someone told them about VA loans.

Like, the whole process and best methods, tips, etc etcThanks in advance!

Also, any CPA recommendations and/or tips on keeping track of expenses/documents?

Thank you for any advice, tips, feedback, comments, etc!
