Have you considered using your VA loan?

Something to ponder.Good luck Thank you for your feedback I appreciate it.

If you do, they pay for themselves.

I have it written in my leases that tenants are responsible for clogs as well as damage from clogs.

I see a lot where newbies are asking for help but as newbies, it feels like they are missing a lot details.

To evaluate Real esteate deals for creative financing, start by identifying seller motivations i.e. financial distress, desire for passive income, do they need a downpayment on their next house, etc  and property factors like equity or existing financing terms.

There are ups and downs, and as you have been in business for 9 years till you closed it, there are unexpected turns, or expenses that you really do not see around the corner.

Just because some do it poorly doesn't mean the business model is flawed.Some of the benefits to the landlord:- A tenant lol.

How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

Specifically, creating a video that other agents in your market can use to post.
