Actually, it sounds like the agent has it all under control from what you've posted.The Dwelling Fire (aka Landord policy) is the correct policy for a completely rented property. 

It does not mean a good home on the MLS (which many will claim) It is actually a specific type of investment.

I guess I could make the argument that if you wanted to park your money, have a (relatively) low maintenance build, actually *wanted* to live there (as a person, not an investor), and didn't want any taxable income in the near term, then I could see doing it.

I realize that is contrary to what most people do, but as a contractor who's doing and/or directing the actual installation and maintenance, it makes a lot of sense for usIn bedrooms, I staple in unfinished 3/4 in. tongue-and-groove oak with 3 coats of oil-based poly to finish it.

Once one of you is a civilian with income high enough to make it relevant (that statement I just made is PROBABLY true, for MOST people), you can actually smoosh whatever remaining VA entitlement is remaining between the two of you in order to bump up what you'd normally be able to get with a VA loan, in terms of purchase price, without putting anything down.

She actually hung up on me the first phone call because I was not accepting her answer of "not their issue", and I needed to contact the owner. 

Thanks, I actually didn't even think about simplifying it as simply classifying them as roommates.

So my question is how do I actually find and contact a property owner if I see a property that interests me? 

Plenty of opportunity and not much to hear from the city upon purchase.The POS ensures that neighbors actually take care of their houses, which doesn't happen in areas where the city has no freaking control over anything.

Hello, is this a deal if its actual information?
