We set up our own LLCs through online services.

I’m 41 a mom of 3 and working on paying off my second home through owner financing.

My VA loan fell through and need to find alternative funding ASAP please help.

I also get referred to a ton of investors each month through BP who find themselves in trouble and the first thing out of their mouth is "but the real estate agent said....).

On the other hand, Option 2 with the BRRRR strategy entails owning a single property outright, building long-term equity, and potentially cashing out through renovations, but it's a slower ride, relying on successful renovations and favorable refinancing options, and you're starting with just one property, which may limit your income potential.

I need some advice on the following situation.I am sorry for asking such a basic question, but unfortunately, I am still new to this and never dealt with this type of scenario before.I have a single family home that is part of an HOA.My main goal is to protect the asset and avoid any potential financial loss as much as possible.The current lease agreement states that the tenants are responsible for mowing the grass.They are also responsible for paying any HOA fines, etcUnfortunately after multiple attempts to get through to them to cut the grass, the grass was never cut and the yard is getting worst and worst.They also refuse to turn on the sprinkler system which is causing the grass to slowly die.

If they can't do this for you, consider it a blessing that you learned they are inexperienced prior to going through a full loan process with them. 

@Hunter HarmonMaking money through house hacking in San Diego can work well, but you need to check your money setup and how the market is doing first.

Sure enough, we go beating through the weeds on the hill and find an old stake about 3 feet in from the new, fresh looking stake.

@Flavia Vangelottithis seems like a great thing to think through, but also hard to advise on since it's a question of both investing and family!
