Quote from @Henrry Novas: Quote from @David Ramirez: I would recommend PODIO; it was easy when we first started integrating apps and organizing it.

@Mike Maxwell This link explains CA'S stance relative to your situation:https://www.ftb.ca.gov/file/pe...I would file in MO even if the rental operates at a loss.If your wife did not physically work in VA and there's no VA withholding, there likely won't be a VA filing requirement.TX does not have a state filing requirement.

Quote from @Nova Shah: Thanks @John Schaeffer!  

I am a real estate attorney in NOVA that is licensed in Maryland that has handled landlord tenant, 2k seems to be on the high side. 

Quote from @Henrry Novas: Quote from @Francis Nasser: Hi Marc, it depends on what stage of the probate the seller is in.

He was 100% right though.You can try to cashflow a property in NOVA with a minimal downpayment on one hand and crap in the other and see what fills up faster. 

MoCo is nice but has increased in value a lot just like DC and NoVA so I would imagine it would be harder there, but I'm not really personally looking at those markets too hard so I could be wrong.I co-host a meetup once/month in Laurel - I'd be happy to pass along the details for the next one once it's posted if you're interested.

There is no VA requirement of justification for buying a home, living there for 1 year or more, then buying another home with a VA loan using secondary/bonus entitlement and keeping the first home as an investment property.

Dc, Nova, Southern MD are all outpaced.
