I looked at a house yesterday for Fix and Flip. 

Otherwise you're just giving the tenant longer to live in the house on your dime.

Last year, I purchased a home with a 7% interest rate.

There is a lot of risk and variables to navigate and sort through and I'd much rather learn on-the-job with my own capital than risk others.

Does it make sense to rent my current house out in Poconos, PA so we could rent an apartment in Florida?

Quote from @Devin James: @Jay Hinrichs Developments are definitely BIG money makers, but thats also reflected with the risk associated.That's why these projects take so much time and capital, but if you make the right judgements for project selection, and do all your due diligence, it'll turn out well. my 90 home project in Oregon  started it as dirt before covid .. got 1st phase built then covid hit.. had to fight through lumber sky rocketing and other material shortages and the of course interest rate spikes.. but the project ( and I give credit to my Wife and my GC's attention to detail) has sold Very well for record prices and profits .. its de risked now 22 lots left 13 are presold with big non refundable deposits and only 9 lots left that have no debt..

Just keep in mind that portfolio lenders will want to see the overall cash flow and occupancy rates across the whole portfolio.Get ready with a detailed financial analysis.

The tricky part to this transaction is the house was just purchased this year with a VA loan, so there is no equity.

.- Get a good interest loan while putting 20% down on a house - live in it until you save another 20%- rent it out and repeatMy question:Can I even rent a place out and keep getting loans for the next house aka good debt?

Best areas for low acquisition costs, occupancy rates, property appreciation?
