@Anthony Wick Thank you! I thought about the exact same thing last night. If we can’t find anything in a reasonable time before we have to move then we’ll probably have to go that route.

@Johnny Napier I’m actually not attending those..at the moment. But I’ll look into them. Is he on bigger pockets?

@Jacque Sacramento So what would you suggest?

Hi everyone! So my husband and I are in the process of looking for homes in Williamsburg. We were wanting to do a fixer upper home to live in for a few years. However, we are on a time crunch. We need to move to Williamsburg by January and I’m concerned that we won’t find the greatest deal unless we’re patient. It’s not something we want to rush into. But we need to move. We’re thinking maybe we could buy a property, maybe a townhouse, on the lower end so our mortgage isn’t too high, but it won’t cash flow for sure. We would have to sell in a few years. We’ll be in VA for the next 4 years for sure..maybe longer. Any suggestions on what you would do? Thanks!

@Matthew R Curcio That sounds nice when dealing with a situation like this but that’s not how it works. CO’s don’t have the authority to take away BAH nor are they going to take away his BAH because he is married. What they can do is garnish wages and even that I’m not 100% sure about in this circumstance.

Hello!

I'm looking for an investor friendly agent in Williamsburg, VA. Looking for a live-in flip or fixer upper whatever you wanna call it. I can run my own numbers just need someone with inventory and a flexible schedule :) Thank you.

Thank you. Can I ask how you funded it? All cash, rehab loan, etc

When I say live in flip I really mean fixer upper...and when we move from Virginia we will hold and rent it out so the numbers have to work.

Can anyone whose lived in a live in flip share their experiences, funding, etc... My husband and I are house hacking at the moment. We are a family of 4 but our kids will not be living with us until next year. We will be buying another investment property but want to do so without the great expense of the “American Dream” mortgage. A 2 bedroom house back with 2 adults and 2 kids is just not logical for us. We live in a shoebox. Thanks in advance!

Yes split units I was going to ask about as well! Each unit is very small with no room in btwn rooms besides a tiny hallway so that could very well work. The wall mounted furnace will eventually go down and I won’t be able to, nor do I want to replace it.
