And 1 of the co-signers has been late on his mortgage (2 times last year). 

I've been doing 3-6 "trial leases" for new tenants and they can extend after; however, I have a W2 sales job that takes a lot of my time.

Anyway, as of today she forfeited her 5k deposit because she refused to close on her new property and the leaseback period has officially expired. 

Many veterans also don’t know you can have more than one VA loan at a time.

My wife and I are just getting started on our real estate journey, and this is my 1st time posting in the forum.

I'm Deon Knights from Frisco,TX, passionate about real estate investing for some time now and I'm particularly passionate about MTR and STR properties.Outside of real estate, I enjoy spending time with my family and my pup Milo.

Every time I've looked into building to rent the numbers did not make sense.

Coos Bay in particular was primarily a timber town and has had some difficult economic periods since it's hey day, but the downtown has grown up, there's yoga, a farmer's market and even a new Starbucks (which by the way you buy the brand new building they lease from!)

Then you could finish the foreclosure and many times the lender gets the property back because they are willing to bid the most or at least bluff that they are and scare off other bidders depending on how the process works where you are.

For those looking for quick access from Portland and also not requiring full short term rental-ability the areas of Cannon Beach, Arch Cape and Manzanita are majestic and luxury real estate areas.
