This would be ideal for our association!

Probably not the "ideal" rental, but because my credit needs a bit fixing I would like to hold on to it for maybe a year, keep paying the loan down, work on my credit and then sell and use that money we make off it to put towards a multi-unit.

And if you work it backwards, in an ideal scenario for you, you will want to close in the first week of July so you can move all of your stuff into your new place.

I'm ready to make my next home my primary residence to qualify for low DP programs (ideally 0% DP).

Again, if you had off market deals you wouldn't be competing with others willing to take a tighter margin.3) Is your market not ideal for flipping at the moment?

I'm struggling putting a # together to offer - ideally 2-3 offers. 

The fact that you are local: ideal for developing the deal-flow and being available for emergencies.I would encourage you to groom some extra help on the self-managing side.

Market dependent......in my are of CA, we supply a stove and dishwasher..... rest is on the tenant.....When we have a unit in TX, the tenants expected all of it.... then my second tenant had a washer/dryer so I had to store mine....was a PITA.....Very market dependent...... ideally I would only supply the dishwasher ......that's kind of a built in type of install with water supply etc, so I'd rather not have tenant taking that in/out etc.... rest of the appliance are pretty easy to move etc

Check with your agent to see if the current company for your Auto Insurance, Home Insurance or Dwelling Fire policy will do the umbrella.

Ideally you'd have two years of consistent W2 income from the same company or at least in the same field, but for an FHA that's not always the case.
