If you plan on having a traditional mortgage and thus lender, you will need proof of income and probably a cosigner.

You're going to have a very difficult time investing in a co-op, @Emre Guven.

I own a co-op in Hallandale Beach Florida, my renters brother got stuck in Florida with him because of the pandemic.

The little regional banks and credit unions will always lag a bit -- it would not surprise me at all if that 95% c/o product went away 2-3 weeks ago, but the "non-essential" website update people have not updated it yet. 

What is the market norm (rate) and fee structure when co-hosting someone else’s STR listing?

Hello,The Army helped me accumulate multiple degrees and I would like to use my remaining VA education benefits for formal real estate investment mentor or apprenticeship in the state of Colorado. 

SO, I'm looking to buy a 2-4 unit property SOMEWHERE where I can afford it and live there for at least the first year (via FHA loan, mortgage co-signer, equity investor(s)?).

Most co-ops have restrictions against renting or allow limited renting. 

Chris,My pleasure to help1TIC (Tenancy In Common) is a type of business structure where the investment is co-owned by a several partners as if each owns a separate piece of investment that can be bought or sold on its own.

@Eileen LopezWith only a part time job, you more than likely will not qualify based on income and may need a co-signer.
