Hey @Luke Trovinger,Appreciate the response, I will definitely take a look at those and play around with them to see what may work for my market.And good to know for the closing/holding costs, i will try to make some calls around my market find more info on that!

I’m even willing to make the payments under the gamble of never getting it refunded, if I can get proper documentation. 

Hi, Yap....roofers are the ones that typically deal with installing skylights.Pay close attention to where the leak is coming from, is it from the Skylight itself or the housing (and thus flushing comes into play) that the skylight sits on?

From what I can gather so far,  I don't it plays an important role, but just wanted to check with the larger community.

This is a long term play.

Screw the stocks, thats the safer AND more profitable play.

I’m doing one right now and will get 245k cash back to play with.

The Bigger Pockets calculator is a great tool for basic underwriting and to play around with the numbers to see how they impact these metrics.The VA loan is a great example of how your cost of capital can make or break a deal, which should give you a competitive advantage to make a deal work that others cannot.Good luck!

Can I do something immediately to ensure it is not lost...The last one is a wild card and is a risk adjusted play...If I found the limit was 2 years, and I knew that the site was vacant for 5 years I would ponder who else actually knows, and can they prove it?

Thank you guys so definitely seems like a cash flow play as oppose to appreciation if I were to go for it
