Greetings all,Moved down here from Northern Virginia about 18 months ago.The short story;  We purchased 24 rental units (6 four-plexes) back in early 2003, sold them in 2005 for a ok profit.  

Hello All,My family and I live in Hampton, VA on a USAF base.  

Hi all,

I'm brand new to the forum and I honestly feel like I'm getting a free college degree or something, with all the knowledge on this site! The benefit of everyone's prior experiences is so helpful, and helps m...

I'm in Virginia.

As long as the unit is empty, you can move on to getting a good tenant.I don't know NY law, but it's likely like VA where you get up to 25% of discretionary income.

Hey bp, just had a va appraisal done and everything went well except for the chipping paint outside.

Thanks the house turned out amazing and the potential new owner is in love with the house and is lining up a VA loan and this could be some of the snag and that coupled with in this part of maine Flipping houses isnt very common and when people buy tax properties they usually live in or rent them out. so the mortgage company and ironically the title company they use were very unfamiliar with the process or what to do when they saw it was tax acquired property. 

Wouldn't the Flipper want to deal with their own VA, instead of my own?

I will be buying this property with an FHA loan initially then in a couple months when my VA is available I will be refinancing but before I do that I want to take the appraisal to the state and contest the current value of the house to make it lower.

Looking to invest 40 k in Virginia Beach.. looking for an investment multi family.
