You'll like also need reserves of at least 6-12 months worth of PITI (principal, interest, taxes and insurance.) 5+ units can require more down, but 25%-35% is common.

Or if it is better to have / had 40% (either higher down or big lump sum to principal)?

VA I think most want the benefit of zero cash down so thats a bit of a draw back and the inspection is rare so approved for VA wont go through with funding due to lack of inspection.Again I have never bought a house at auction nor am I in the Military so this is just from my research but not tested. 

I continued my program of over paying the principal amount of my monthly PITI to bring the loan principal amount down quicker as well.

Typically, the NDA will be integrated into other principal agreements relating to the subject matter of the NDA such as proposals, contracts, representations and agreements.It is always a good idea to separate trade secrets from confidential information in the NDA, this is because trade secrets usually have a longer protection period by law.

Probably short term rentals have a separate form because of the lodging taxes.Your attorney or anyone else can sign if they have a power of attorney, but the instrument has to recite WHO the principal is.

It was accompanied by a 35 page business plan that had been put together by a consultant that charged the entrepreneur $7,500, a glossy brochure generically talking about commercial real estate, and a resume of the principal.  

Many lenders also offer an Interest-Only HELOC, with which you pay interest only — no principal — during the draw period (Usually 10 years).

My client intends to pay off the principal, interest, fees... all at the close of escrow.
