Any insight into this will be greatly appreciated.

They seem to be no help just on plans.

For me so far: my own research for rents, comps and rehab budgetWhat am I missing that you would add in this preliminary analysis?

I haven't found much helpful information in my search so far.I've purchased and rebuilt three homes in the past, but I've never done a new build from the ground up.

I am located in Springfield, MA and am a Relator/Investor in Western MA and have done pretty well in this market.

SHould I just pass on this old property and look into new construction?   

,This situation might be very specific but I am needing help solving this issue.I have someone who would like to sell me their Airbnb House they currently have it under a VA Loan with the Local housing authority. it is assumable but would require me to put more down and would limit their use of the VA Loan until i refinance out of it.the Local Housing authority has been calling mortgages due to anyone they find that are owner financing homes while still having an active mortgage from them on. 

Is this typical to have 1 year leases and be treated more like a residential rental? 

i suspect this will vary by market ….  

This is not a wholesale or an assignment.
