We have a small team of employees (some of which work remotely).

Did you go direct to seller for this one?

A couple of people created what they needed using a water meter with a pulse output and some small circuitry that somehow connects online.

We found the Church St deal through our partner, Brittney Sciandra, who identified the opportunity and brought it directly to us.

Negative cash flow is not something I’d be okay with, but I know there are some instances where people are okay with taking a small hit for a big pay off with the appreciation (and hopes that the rent will go up).

As my profile says, I'm an affordable-housing handyman landlord running a small outfit out here in Pittsburgh and doing what I do is NOT EASY.

It's many many small gains compounding on top of another. 

I could , however my remaining entitlement is 211k , and the houses I would be looking at is 450k range so even though the Va loan has much more benefits because of the small remainder I Would need more down payment .  

I did it direct and on my own.

I will send you a direct message to discuss further details.Looking forward to connecting and possibly attending one of these meetups.Best
