It is simple.

Now, in the case of buying a triplex or fourplex in a cheaper market, we are thinking a turnkey property and saw some options that would give us about $450-$600/month positive cashflow.On paper, it seems the smart option is to buy outside of state and get that cash flow going but there's one important thing, we live in a 1 bedroom apt with a 21-month old girl, which means maybe we have 1 more year at our current place and we'll definitely have to move to a 2-bd place and rent will increase by $500-$1000. at least, so then, there's not so much difference anymore.I'd love to know your thoughts.Thank you in advance!

Just let the prospect with the emotional support animal know that the other applicant was chosen for some other reason besides not having an emotional support animal (higher credit score, better rental history, etc.)If you do decide to rent to this tenant make sure that you not only require them to fill out your emotional support animal paper work, but also call the doctor who prescribed the emotional support animal to confirm everything that was put down on the form. 

But in the end, we want to keep it as simple as possible, while retaining as much protection as possible.

Plain and simple.  

Simple solution. 

The reason is simple.

As with first property, we made a simple counteroffer to the bank on this foreclosure and picked it up at a good value.

Most want a simple "cosmetic" rehab that can be finished in 90 days.Regardless, I always advise any VA loan buyer to write an offer such that Seller pays 4% of sale price back to Buyer to pay all possible closing costs and pre-paid items ( like the first years worth of home owner insurance, etc.).
