If rates DO come down in the future you can consider refinancing, but don't forget there are costs associated with that as well.

We don't sell you the home as they do, rather build it out at cost +fee for you, allowing investors to enjoy the upside in price.

It’s my understanding it’s very hard to meet reps status working a w2Also I believe once you get above $150k basically you lose any benefits of reps status I think I will be able to qualify for the STR re status if I run the cost segregation when I purchase the house. 

There are only three reasons a property doesn't rent.1) The price is too high.

Double digit loans of $250-500k can be both cost and qualifying prohibitive.

We had someone get a ticket and pulled the carts for the rentals, probably cost us between 5-10% of total revenue but it was more important for us to keep our carts than not have them for an extended period.$2 mm house or not you will have headaches with carts regardless and in our experience it's just not worth the hassle.my recommendation is work a deal with a local place you can refer them to and get a small referral fee from.

Total cost to me = Free estimate. 

Yes, there are many free resources out there, but books are one of many low-cost educational pieces that pretty much everyone agrees are worth the cost.Happy reading! 

VA construction aka One Time Close is a great program to buy and build on a home.Keep in mind that some of the construction costs would need to be paid prior to closing.

My loan broker was able to get me set up for my VA benefits of $0 down and only $1k and some change for the closing cost, with an APR of 3.25%.
