You'll want to talk to them, see their work, and get a gauge for how much they cost.

I am also thinking about asking for 1/2 of the repair cost from seller. 

(It’s a great tool)I am located in Oceanside/carlsbad area.Using the VA on two places has a lot of limitations with the cost of homes in this area it makes it near impossible however having a good VA loan officer is key for part of your team.I am actually helping another client in a very similar situation.

I think that's exactly what I would want to do, but I'm clueless as to how much such a bedroom conversion project would cost.

I did 10x what it cost to be in CCF in net revenue.

hi guys,I have saved a 20% downpayment a property but struggling to save the remaining 65K for fixing the property up.Example, the property cost 150K, I saved up 35k, but struggling to save up an additional 65K to do the rehab (my understanding the lender will not give me the rehab money right away, I have to pay my own money to start rehabbing and the lender then will reimburse me in stages the rehab portion)Correct?

How can a seller credit be paid once the closing costs are already covered?

buy + closing costs on buy + rehab + holding costs + refi costs + rent ready costs.  

I had a full time job and invested in real estate doing the BRRRR method.

My wife and are implementing this "Nomad Strategy" and are about to start looking for our 3rd property here in Colorado Springs.The major issue right now is interest rates, and the fact that if you only put down a 5% DP and borrow the other 95% at a 6.5% - 7% rate you will not even come close to covering your mortgage with the rent when you move out next year.So, we found a VA assumable loan (FHA loans are also assumable) with a 3% rate and a seller who had an overpriced listing because he was pricing to break-even after paying off his debt and closing costs for selling the home.
