@Juan Mendoza, @Justin Merod, @Steven Gillmer, @Travis Buck, @Justin Markland, @Ian Walsh, @Scott Marshall So...supposed to close today.  

I had a conversation with someone a while back who did exactly what people have "implied" about using the VA Loan but not in the way they are supposed to....Here's what happened to her.....She got the VA Loan.....and suddenly at the last minute decided not to occupy the property....and subsequently decided to rent it out to a relative who she trusted......You know the rest of the story...........Relative and her got into an argument a few months after the "relative" started renting from her......relative decides she isn't going to pay rent until things get settled......THe veteran can't keep floating that mortgage payment,...and the "tenant" knows this.....threatens to tell the VA Lender about the fraud, etc....After all....those "courtesy" notices are being sent to the property to the OWNER with her name and it has the Loan Number, the amount, etc...it was all bad.Someone else I had a conversation with did the same thing...only he rented to a tenant that he screened.....tenant sees all the VA stuff from the lender and from other banks coming in the mail and tells owner about it.....owner says ignore it.

It was supposed to be my primary residence.

I suppose I need to call around and ask for the vacancy rates.

@Paul SandhuI suppose that isn't completely out of the question either!

But my house, my rules I suppose.

I suppose technically it's available but there isn't a  lender in business that will do a loan without a full interior appraisal, a fully executed purchase and sale agreement, and other things, and there is no "seller" in a foreclosure.

NOTHING.Holding back a percentage of money is a waste of time...and it doesn't do what it's supposed to do. 

Tenant was supposed to move out by the end of June by failed to do so until today (July 1st), giving us a really hard time.

Raise both units in 10 years you earn an additional $48,000.But, those numbers are not true, because if you are doing what you are supposed to do to get the most profit you raise the rent 10 more times in 10 years and maybe you make more than $80,000 or $100,000.Now!!!
