Bryan, with older VAs, the pricipal has been reduced so there can easily be enough bandwidth, newer VAs I beleive go up to something like 200+K, doesn't mean they use all of that to buy the first home under a VA, so there can be more to tap into, especially at today's prices.The best way to disclose, IMO, is to say that you may not be eligible for another VA loan, I wouldn't tell them they can't unless I looked at their entitlements and loan balances.I haven't done VAs for so,me years now, the amounts of the entitlements change with the median price of homes, I have never seen them come down, but I guess they could...later

Heloc on investment is terrible pricing, you and everyone in the US doesn't want to get rid of their 3% rates but also want that equity.If you want the equity bad enough you've gotta eat the heloc rate or kiss the 3% goodbye.

The current market value of the home is about $645,000.Key Details:Purchase Year: 2020Purchase Price: $415,000Current Market Value: $645,000Mortgage Interest Rate: 2.99%Equity: $320,000Current Monthly Cash Flow: $1,450Return on Equity (ROE): 5.44% (without variable expenses)Return on Investment (ROI): 14.5% (without variable expenses)However, I've noticed some trends that are starting to concern me:- Home prices in my area are slightly reducing, and rental prices are also on the decline.- There are more houses listed for sale and rent in the neighborhood, which is pushing rent values down.- My current lease is up in September and the tenant is leaving, and I expect my monthly cash flow to reduce to $950, lowering my ROE to 3.57% and ROI to 9.5%, again, without variable expenses.- Homes are staying on the rental market for a few weeks, sometimes months, even at lower prices.

I feel like I don't know what I don't know, and I feel that jumping straight to an investor-backed leveraged multifamily deal as a first timer might be a bit too much.Yet, I see no other way to enter the multifamily space as the entrance barrier is high, and cheaper deals in tertiary markets are often cheap for a reason.Would love to hear your thoughts on whether jumping straight to a multifamily syndication is reasonable, and if so, what would be the best path for me to make a deal happen in the coming months?
