It is a fast source of cash to move quickly with when needed.  

However my first investment will be my primary residence and my financial source is the VA loan and my regular pay from trucking.

Use an alternative source of financing such as seller financing. 

From the lighting sources to the wattage used, from the cleanliness of the windows to the grain of the marble countertop, each home you sell sends a specific message that will directly impact the emotions of potential buyers.And guess what?

The tenant is the source of the funds to pay the mortgage so the added interest from the added payments comes f4om them...NOT YOU. 

Hello Eli,I just saw this post and I thought I would send a link of some sources that I use or other professionals use in their research at a post I just made in the link below!

@Regina Young - Great question and I am also looking to get into wholesaling in my area as well, mostly to source off market deals for myself. 

It is not illegal for a landlord to require proof of same (and not from one of those bogus online sources that, for $99 will claim anything is an ESA).Some landlords are now providing their own forms that an applicant must take to a LOCAL medical provider QUALIFIED to confirm the need for such an animal. 

I know from my own experience that many in my social network have done really well from crowd sourcing real estate and stock market investing tricks.

I'm lucky to have saved well and have an interested and friendly source of funds that wants to see where else he can invest money (#dad)... so I'm ready to get after it.
