If you are stugling at that level my advice is go out and leran the market.

My state doesn't have a foreclosure auction calendar that shows ALL of the upcoming foreclosure auctions, that also reflects postponements (important) and cancellations.

I try and push my clients a bit more on year end items from October on so January isn't a Poop show for all parties. 

But the best ways to get started are, in my opinion: 1) save up enough for a 10-20% down payment and then save a lot more on top of that for reserves, overages, and any unforeseen repairs.    2) have your financial house in order and have credit above 700 to get more favorable rate and terms from lenders.   3) speak to a loan officer that is experienced with fix and flips and get the necessary documents together for a pre approval (typically not much required, usually a valid ID, LLC docs if any, and two months of bank statements showing funds for down payment and reserves). 

My property manager had someone inspect the issue, and they initially said the AC unit was the problem.

Using a VA loan for a second property, where I’d move in and rent out my current home.When I made an offer on a fixer-upper (I didn’t win that bid), the loan officer mentioned it might be difficult to convince the underwriter why I’d need another VA loan for a second property in the same area, especially since the new home is almost identical to my current one (same size, age, school district, etc.).

We are about 1/2 way done my personal residence.

If so, a quick tip that has worked for me in the past is to just attend some real estate meetups in your area (or host one yourself).

Hello, I am looking to expand my brokerage from Chattanooga, TN to North GA but am having some issues with Georgia Real Estate Commission.

Last year, my husband and I purchased an investment property in Salt Lake City that we turned into a short-term rental.
