Flooring guy to install LVP (luxury vinyl plank flooring) with a minimum of 12 mil wear layer (but the higher this number the better off you are).

We finished out (portfolio wide) at 58% in Jan (better than average), 78% in February (better than average), and are at 61% for March (our best month) but should finish 80-85%. 

I have been involved in Pace's Subto community for over 2 yrs and it has just become better and better.

The suburbs will be higher taxes but generally better schools and higher income tenants.

Given your circumstances, the following advice and considerations apply:Benefit from low interest rates, no down payment required in most situations, and financing for up to four units when you take advantage of the VA loan.A thorough grasp of your budget should include the purchase price of the property as well as any possible maintenance expenses and other related expenses.

I would definitely do it if the numbers are better as the 3 STR's instead of long term. 

So I could use this new property as a better home base. 

@Leonard Sanford Jr unless the house needs tens of thousands of renovation, usually saving up and using that to renovate is the better answer.

I don’t do the cash back ones as I tend to go for miles and points.I just booked 2 1/2 weeks in Europe for me and my better half.

Would I be better suited trying to find a Fix N Flip, pay cash using my equity, do the work myself and then put it back up on the market or would I be better off purchasing an STR with 20% down and leveraging a loan to get some cash flow coming in then maybe pursue a Fix n Flip using the remaining equity and let the STR repay the HELOC until I sell the flip?
