Think about building down in homestead the numbers are even better, appreciation is better, etc. land is cheaper. you can build this for cheaper than $475k these days and add a unit. three unit. miami is on fire 

@Kar Sun I have a tenant who has been toxic since I bought the building last April.

That means if you and another veteran apply for a VA mortgage together you can build or buy a property with as many as “six family units (the basic four units plus one unit for each of the two Veterans), and one business unit.”)My Take:I interpret this as possibly a mixed use building with 6 residential units and one business unit like a restaurant or coffee shop down stairs.

The building has a retail storefront.

Check local zoning laws and building codes to ensure converting the basement into a separate apartment is permissible.

VA financing when used with a strategy in combination with conventional and FHA may allow you to build your portfolio and cashflow quicker.Best of

The last time I used subscription services to build lists and / or research properties, was at least 7-10 years ago.

This was sold to a local person who had no intention of building there, but just want to use the golf course and other amenities.There are many property owners who are trying to sell lots in Eagle Rock, and many who are letting their property go for tax sales.  

I can lookup (I don't think I can calculate it anymore) and compare the section properties and tell you how the Al piece compares.We were also thinking of sistering two of these together: https://www.menards.com/main/building-materials/trusses-i-joists-engineered-lumber/laminated-veneer-lumber-lvl-strand-lumber/1-3-4-x-7-1-4-lvl-1-9e/1061006/building-materials/trusses-i-joists-engineered-lumber/laminated-veneer-lumber-lvl-strand-lumber/1-3-4-x-7-1-4-lvl-1-9e/1061161/p-1444438527854.htmWe'd have to get a treated version or wrap them to protect from the elements.

I'm not sure how that factors in.
