but you need certain conditions to make it so. You need 20k, you need to know a veteran who has not yet used his VA home loan, you need an area where the codes do not prevent your renting out rooms by the week, on a 'sober living" contract (ie, evict tenants at will, they have no recourse) You want as close to 'interest only' type of mortgage as you can get. You want to be able to just walk away, with little regret. You need massive amounts of tort insurance. You need a powerful personality, so that your scum tenants don't want to mess with you. You need discernment, so as to (mostly) weed out the scum in the first place. you need to know that a GI loan saves you 25k of downpayment and closing costs (on a 100k house). You need to live there and manage the place for the first year.
