Does anyone have any recommendations for a real estate agent that has experience with VA Loans (specifically- assumable VA loans)?

Your experience, cash position, risk tolerance, handy skills, and income levels all will play a role in what will be the best house-hack for you or not. 

I'd saying following your experience and scaling off of your flips would make the most sense as you can use skills/knowledge you've already cultivated.

I would like to hear about your experience with them.They are affiliated with Cogo Capital.  

I do have some experience with property management.

But agree third party real estate web sites don't update status changes of a property based on my experience. 

Out of state and no experience with rentals............SETUP for DISASTER.2.

Other than making less money overall, some of the other downsides of my S8 experience were the following:1.

It is important that you hire professionals who have experience working with foreign investors.

You don't need to know everything to get started; you need a foundation to build on and the rest will come through experience and then refining your education.You can build a basic understanding of investing in 3-6 months.
