I don't recommend lying to get a mortgage.

I need ANYBODY AND EVERYBODY who invests, rehabs, and property manages in Birmingham to recommend contractors, agents, management companies, real estate attornies, etc that I could use.

Any recommendations for management companies?

I have good news about the supply of homes for sale in the three county area around sacramento county.

My recommended approach here: make the VA hand off anyone that is even REMOTELY interested in selling over to you.

Can you recommend from resources or things to consider?

When the costs of the thing are so low that you can live free off the rent that the other unit is generating, it adds to your life.I would recommend reading Set for Life by @Scott Trench and looking at his data about living in duplexes.

I'd recommend looking into that and potentially partnering with a wholesaler who can send out your land deals for you, and just cut them off a chunk of change. 

May have a futon or pull out couch instead.For smaller rentals, such as yours,  I'd recommend a Kerurig coffee maker.

I have gone through ALDOR to purchase and I’ve also purchased through a broker, but I was looking to see if there were websites that also listed them that I could take a look at? Thanks
