And yeah Marquette, MI is an appreciating market and a college town where everyone complains about increasing rents (and their bad landlords).Hopefully I can still find a few properties that can cash flow anything, no matter how small, with zero down but I'll have to see if they'll pass VA inspection too.

Any recommendations on trusted lenders and contractors in the Michigan area?

We live MI so I understand this is a Non community state. 

On top of that, OOS investors love the price point here, and MI is actually pretty landlord friendly, contrary to some opinions.I personally make well over $100k/yr cash flow from 21 properties here.
