Thanks, Kyser Some HOAs have transfer costs.

My advice is to buckle down and save enough for down payment, closing costs, and emergency/rehab fund before you make another investment.

I’m gaining knowledge of costs to replace certain things in the house.

If you were to wait until the lease ends, can you afford to carry the costs of the property until sold?

I haven't used insta, and will play with it in next couple of months.Social media is powerful if done right!

Yes, the VA loan on the departing residence would stay on their entitlement, and it would limit their purchasing power.

Here in Houston we had a tornado last week and no power until yesterday so had to take a time out on brainstorming but an inspector and contractor are going over there on Thursday so I have a better assessment.

It would also lessen my out--of-pocket on either hard money costs or cash I spend, so I'd have more to work with to acquire more properties.

All that matters is what you net after selling costs minus what you paid for it. .
