I’m evaluating this property as a VA-funded live-in renovation project with a 2-to-3-year hold → rental conversion.Any info on this property would be greatly appreciated. 

Or stick with your buyer, evaluate their listing and work it out with them.

That’s a great question and one I think often business owners and professionals who’ve built strong skill sets try to evaluate, how (and whether) to make real estate a full-time focus.From a tax perspective, you already know real estate can be an incredible wealth-building tool, but timing, structure, and diversification matter more than ever in today’s market.

I’d also love to connect with local investors, builders, and property managers who know the market well.Looking forward to learning from this community and sharing my progress along the way!

As I evaluate this, I figured I'd share my account with my bookkeeper, but then realized that would also give them access to my accounts.Don't get me wrong, I like Baselane so far, but this might be a fatal flaw for me.

I’ve been looking into ways to better evaluate borrower history and collateral value.Would love to hear what’s been working for you.
