LTR:The STR loophole can be a huge tax advantage because you can use depreciation and other expenses to offset your regular income, which is a big win.

I think taking advantage of low downpayments and using very high leverage is incredibly powerful it makes your return so much bigger.

Your liquidity is a nice start, but also not a direct advantage while exploring the BRRRR strategy. 

Your advantage is your connection to the right investors with cash to purchase the property.

I'm VA so I can take advantage of 0 down.

Instead, they are taking advantage of you and you are letting it happen.I recommend you learn what a good PM looks like, then start your search for a new one immediately.

The individual can verify that it is a licensed health care provider, but cannot easily determine if that health care provider is one of the many that advertise on the internet for ESA authorizations for a fee.I personally think the biggest advantage of using petscreening.com as well as enforce AB468 is it discourages bogus ESA applicants from applying.  

The fact that you have four days off puts you at a great advantage (don't forget to rest).I'm a full time agent and part time investor (mostly out of state now).

@Jose QuinonesVA loans include advantages such as no down payment, lower interest rates, and increased cash flow potential for house buyers.
