The ideal situation is you list the house as “rent to own” Get 10% down and give them option to buy in 2-4 years for a pre determined price.

All that means is you've got bring your best to all aspects of the property and the listing itself -- location, furnishings, photography, heck, even the listing headline all matter a lot.At the risk of pitching here, my wife's YouTube is filled with a ton of great MTR content on setting up a listing.

Maybe I will add this to the listing!

They have a list on their website of who to use.Recommend you dive into Detroit's website area about all this:https://detroitmi.gov/departments/buildings-safety-engineeri...

Many sellers and listing agents have a bias against VA loans, and view them as more difficult to deal with.

The property appraiser/assessor is the cheapest resource to find the owners of a property.When you pull the county on the site I listed above you can go to the property appraiser and click on “go to data online”it should take you to search page, where you will type in the address.whej you get the property, it should pull up the owner, mailing address and subject property address.also, it should list the sales history and chain of title, where it should mention who they bought it from and how much they bought it for.this ought to help you understand what you have to work with.for example, the last real sale on the picture listed was in 2008 for 325k, so unless there was additional money borrowed on the property, there ought to be some equity.
