Hey @Cory O'Dell ,Impressive, this the first time I've ever heard of a buyer being allowed to buy with FHA loan and not actively live in the property due to military circumstances.Would you be able to get a VA loan later on if you start out with FHA on property #1 and then VA on property #2 1+ years later?

I am blown away by how active and welcome this community is.

The house also has an attached in-law apartment and a 12'x12' stone cottage that we do plan to use for a bit of AirBNB and SRT house hacking.We are also starting to actively look for small flips and BRRRR's in South and Central Maine. 

.- If we buy a couple thousand acres of ranch land, but want to turn it into a wind or solar farm, how quickly does the land need to become active with the actual farming of natural resources?

However, I'd bet dollars to doughnuts there are also going to be damages.Generally speaking, tenants who pay their rent on time return their units in a good, clean condition. 

I'm trying to be more active on BP however I dont have a lot of expertise yet, but I have some time and drive!

If the mechanicals and plumbing are handy I bet you could finish the basement for $30 per s.f. 

Applied against active income if you fall under the MAGI thresholds. 

@Layton E Bailey I would suggest linking up with someone who is already actively wholesaling in the area and offering to work for free or buy them lunch.

They are in the mid $100k and are about 10%-15% from 2007 in good neighborhoods.This isn't a bet on appreciation as they still cash flow but moreover future planning/selling.
