Debt to income
I've been educating myself on real estate for the past 3ish weeks or so but I have about 10k worth of credit card debt should I try and pay it all off so I can get my credit score up and have better approval odds for my first investment loan (I would be using my VA loan). Or should I try to find a deal now and start the loan process? I,d love to hear everyone's opinions and thoughts!
