Like for me I have a business I enjoy that produces active income I don't see myself stepping out of anytime soon, so I am prioritizing the nicer areas/properties that might not cash flow as much right now but will in the future and provide me with good depreciation to offset active income right now.Just such a personalized thing that doesn't have a one size fits all approach.

Manuel Llanas VA Home Loan Benefits- Information and more
7 July 2024 | 5 replies
Some real quick items here:VA Loans are for Primary HomesYou can use VA Loans for 1-4 unit properties (House Hacking)VA Loans have 0% downpayment (most of the time)You can have more than 1 VA loan (some people don't know that)VA Loans do carry a "funding fee" which is like a little "tax" to write the loan, but it is waived if you are a disabled veteran.VA Loans do not have PMI (and that's a huge benefit for us)VA Loans also have a very streamlined refinance feature (called a VA IRRRRL) which makes it super easy to refinance if rates were to fall (hopefully that will occur in the future)VA Loans can also be used by a surviving spouse.The VA may not give us the best health benefits but they can certainly get us into debt!

Hey BP family,I am new to real estate investing but would love some experts insights so I don't get burned on my first dealThis is the property: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/724-N-22nd-Ave-Bozeman-MT...My thoughts are my wife, 8 month old and I could live in Unit A for a year or two while we rent out Units B & C to help cover the mortgage payments until we build/buy a more desirable family ranch home with min 10+ acres which we've been looking for but have yet to find.My hesitation is I've never been a landlord and am reluctant to get in over my head with property problems while simultaneously growing an online business and being a new father.After some negotiation we counter offered 895k with a 2-1 rate buy down for 20k and the sellers have verbally accepted but since our offer expired we need to resubmit.

So, then you’d have change title to your personal name to refi using a primary residence loan, so you’d have to find a lender, FHA is out, which would let you Simultaneously transfer title to your name and refi at the same time…might need some luck on that one.Also it is Not a cash offer, which means you Already have the cash when you offer…..which is Why people prefer a truly cash offer, since there is No chance of the sale falling through due to the buyer being unable to get the loan (for their “cash” offer).
