Meaning that the multifamily must go into my personal name.If I quitclaim the property to the LLC after closing escrow on a commercial loan, I have heard such action could trigger a “due on sale” clause whereby my total loan amount could become due and/or I could be required to pay a prepayment penalty.Without the LLC, my tax structure is less favorable and I am exposed to personal liability.Any guidance on this situation?

People with bad credit are penalized by the availability, amount, and cost of capital.

However, in this scenario, the investors want to increase their wealth by a significant enough amount in order to “prove” the process works.

For example, some lenders require 12 month occupancy instead of 6.What you could do is you and your wife buy a home, occupy it jointly for the required amount of time, and then move into another home with her VA loan.

There is a budget amount that may be a little tricky to determine but in the long run a house that has reasonable and somewhat "neutral" updates for the area is going to sell for more.

He definitely will not want to pay a double rent amount than what he would pay if he moved somewhere else.

@Kevin Polite Thank you Kevin, I needed that :-)     ( I'm going to list 2 houses in 30032 in the next 2 weeks... ) Yes, I'm seeing a lot of price drops in 30032 but honestly I think some investors went overboard with the base price they paid for their homes and the amounts they are asking for the rehabbed houses.

It may do nothing if people turn them into long term rentals.If a huge amount of houses were dropped on the market all at the same time, then yes it could move the needle.

@Troy HebertAll very VALID questions/ concerns that you pose.I will start by saying that RE as an investment has created the most amount of wealth out of any asset class.
