But, your payment can still be lower on an IO even with a slightly higher rate due to the simple interest calculation. and sure, you can get them without any points/buy down but the rate will of course be higher then if you did pay points. and details matter, so as for quotes the reality is to get a real quote, you are likely going to have to give someone the actual details or you are just getting a thumb in the air quote. 

Anything metal that is outside will need to be oiled or protected monthly from the salt air, door hinges, doorknobs, gates, hooks, handles, bikes, light fixtures, chairs.

.- Tangent - Gas Station Air Compressors are a scam!

Find a good home in a good neighborhood that will bring good rent once you leave.I’m active duty Air Force and have three homes with my VA loan.

We have noticed that all types of government tenants are more likely to complain about indoor air quality issues, and almost all of the complaints are bogus.

After purchasing, I removed all the radiators, boilers, and the large oil tank, then installed 2 central heating/cooling system's with air duct's throughout the entire home. 

All I did was take 10,000 sign some papers and created 150,000 in equity out of thin air.

Tenant maintenance includes changing the HVAC system filters, batteries, trash cans, electric light bulbs, fuses, resetting circuit breakers, cleaning of appliances, as well as window air conditioning units, humidifiers, and de-humidifiers, or any other services not specifically listed as supplied in this Lease Agreement at Tenant’s expense.

Additionally, installing a makeup air system along with a ducted vent hood seems impractical and costly.I've considered alternative options such as a recirculating vent hood, but I'm concerned about its effectiveness in removing grease and smoke. 

Have an air tight criteria and do your homework on the applicants.
