I see a couple of benefits from this approach:1.

What are the benefits?

We have the added benefit of being just a couple of hours from Moab which is maybe less attractive in the middle of summer, but an exceptional place for spring or fall adventures. 

@Philip Mullinax first if you need to evict someone from a unit you are buying the price needs to be adjusted for that. 

Otherwise FHA or Conventional are your options if your income is over the USDA limit.FWIW, I would go FHA or Conv and save your VA benefit for the next one. 

It's my hope to develop a strong business relationship, which can mutually benefit us both. 

Though I still need to learn more benefits of 5+ over 4 and below.

Is there any benefit to the author (or me) if I purchase through your web site?

(I am strongly considering a number of cities that are located in the states we're already in)I don't want to do it for the sake of doing it, but rather because there are tangible benefits.

Thanks Tim.My insurance company said the damages to my neighbors unit will be covered under my insurance policy and there is no deductible to be paid by me.All he needs to do is send in pictures and an estimate for repairs.Since my insurance company is handling the claim, there is no need for an adjuster to come out.
