@Douglas J AndrewsHi Douglas, if you are intent on this property your best bet is to get it under contract with contingencies.A key element in making your purchase offer is doing a critical path analysis to determine the steps, time, players and capital needed to pull the deal off.To save yourself time and aggravation, make your first pass offer the the form of a term sheet.

Thank you in advance.With what you described, your best bet might be to cite AB-5 and make them W2/salary you.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Assembly_Bill_5_(2019)You will find a world of possibilities open up as soon as that is done.

@Mark your best bet would be to talk to a lender like Chris Griffith at Debtdoesdeals.com who is a veteran and specializes on the VA loan.
