I set up a lease (similar to what we used for a separate house rental) while I was married and am now divorced with 2 young children. 

Regardless, I'm probably going to try at least the 3 local banks in town before finding other funding options.On a side note, why do banks have to "season?"

I'm looking to make some money on a per hour basis, or contract work, and I want to know if there are any VA websites I should look into signing up for. I would like to draw on my background which includes a bachelor'...

One of his rental homes flooded, and she threatened to sue him if he set foot on the property.I just assumed that standard landlord law gave him the right to enter a property to do emergency repairs or damage mitigation, but this lady is really freaking out and says she has a friend who is a lawyer who swears up and down he cannot enter the property without her permission.Any words of wisdom?

I have my heart set on doing some vacation rentals at the beach to start out, then possibly move into some single family longer term rentals, but I have a lot to learn!

That means that they can't deny an applicant because he seems like a jerk as long as he meets the criteria that the landlord set out when he started the screening process (credit score, income, job stability, etc.).

Time to dig through my Chrome settings and see what I managed to do.

.- My goal is to follow Scott Trench's ideas in Set for Life and hopefully rent a room for under $1200/month to save some extra cash and use it along with my current savings to buy and house hack a duplex/triplex/fourplex in 4-12 months in the Oakland/Emeryville area.- I consider myself very handy since I have renovated my entire house 99% by myself and pulled permits. 

All things aside  I want to make the best financial decision and not rely on my emotions.
