@Sharise Scott Woot woot, congratulations on taking action! With so little cash invested, I'm sure the cash on cash return is pretty good. What sort of rents do you get for this property? Is it turnkey? Does it require work? I'd love to learn more about your deal and offer guidance in anyway I can.

Hello, 

I'm still getting use to this site so I apologize if this doesn't go to the right spot. I purchased my first home using my VA home loan. It did not require any work as it was a turn key property! The rental rates there are lower than average but they are long time tenants. I'd love some feed back on how to be competitive in this demanding market

Congratulations on taking the step towards Financial Freedom!! First deal is always special 

Thank you! I’m Eager to buy my second!

@Sharise Scott congratulations on your success!

Awesome first deal @Sharise Scott . Keep it up and keep growing!

Hell yeah!!!!!!!

Your monthly BBQ/ craft beer/ budget just skyrocketed!!!!!– or progress to financial freedom, whichever you choose, but I know my desiccation.,

@Quaid Cde Baca Mainly travel lol! But I caught your point lol. Thank you!

@Sharise Scott

Are you paying cash or using leverage?

@Jason Norton I purchased my first with a VA loan.

@Sharise Scott

Yes I have clients to do use the retail side for the first few investments. I have a client right now where his wife has five Loans and the husband has five loans. We’re having to do a portfolio for the 10 and one that they’re purchasing to add to the portfolio at the same time because their local bank credit union and other lending institutions around the country will not do that many properties on a portfolio. Most of them only want to do 3 to 5. Once we get to a certain amount of houses then it just goes to a number and the largest portfolio that we personally can do is $100 million.
