and in your spare time, I suppose?

Hi Bigger Pocket-ers, I know I'm supposed to introduce myself to the community as I start meeting new people and giving and receiving advice so here it goes: I began my real estate career as a real estate lawyer with Simpson Thacher, primarily working for Blackstone, KKR and a handful of other private equity clients.  

@vanessa in Ma a landlord is not supposed to charge any fee to run credit.

My question is, suppose I purchased a home using my VA loan, what do I need to provide as proof of "intent" to live in the new residence, and also, I haven't seen anything that says you can't resell the home within any specified time frame.

I suppose everyone who works hard deserves to get lucky now and then. 

For example, if the home costs $90k and a member puts in $10k worth of work (500 hours @ $20/hour), then that member now has a 10% share of the investment because $10k = 10% of ($90k + $10k).Once sold and all costs have been accounted for and paid, each member is entitled to their share of the proceeds.For example: Suppose that the total cost for flipping the house was $140k and the total proceeds from selling the house are $200k.

I suppose the strong dollar will keep some foreign investment out.

The first house is  occupied by a tenant who was supposed to purchase it several years ago but has never been able to get financing.

We could invest in Kalamazoo and work in Chicago I suppose.

I suppose I'm also looking for reassurance that the lost summer fun of 2015 will be worth it in the long run.
