Hey Patrick,I just recently purchased my 2nd home with VA loan, kind of.

I think you're saying you'd like to make a deal with the buyer to purchase the property, however, because they don't have title, it's not the buyer's property to sell.In that instance, what you could do is offer a four-year lease during which time you make payments that would cover their payments to the owner, and an option to purchase.

Purchase price: $632,000 Cash invested: $33,000 Sale price: $825,000 Duplex purchased to split and resale What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

You just have to make sure all of your numbers are good before you purchase.

In my opinion, some associations have way too much control and tend to take advantage of the out of state investors (not all of course).Is your preference to purchase another STR if a 1031 is the play?

Depending on credit history and how the property would perform from a rental income standpoint you may have access to up to 85% financing on an investment property 1-4 unit purchase. 

There are lenders that will allow up to 85% financing on an investment property and 90% on a second home purchase assuming applicant meets program requirements.
