Given being able to get rock-bottom rates (we just refi'ed ours to 2.75%) with 0% down and no PMI, this is huge in a house hack scenario.My questions are: 1. is this a local/lender-specific requirement or do all lenders have this when issuing VA loans, and 2. how much experience is needed, and 3. is it required to be shown on a tax return or will signed lease agreements suffice?  

I was thinking a $500 bonus would suffice?

@Mason KimballMy understanding is a business deposit account would suffice.

My next mistake with this property is that I did not know that banks wont loan out to individuals without a W2 job and if you are self-employed or an independent contractor, then you need 2 years of tax returns showing that your income is suffice for them to lend to you.

@David M.Just to add; If the cost of the flip is mostly cosmetic and under 10% of the purchase price of property than a vacant policy would suffice.

It sounds like you're self managing so your own spreadsheet or your accountant's recommended spreadsheet should suffice.

I wanted it to end amicably and assumed additional cleaning and carpet removal would suffice going to court.  

Will that suffice as a payoff statement for the title co?

@Tina ChauTitle company will suffice

Are there Any title companies out there known to allow some sort of affidavits from heirs to suffice for an official probating of an estate?
