Pre-Approved for 180k in Colorado Springs (V.A.)
As of today, I have successfully been pre-approved for a 180k VA home loan in Colorado! However, now comes the challenge of finding the right property. Since I am a beginning investor, I really want to find a good cash flowing property without much initial fix-up costs.
To my fellow BP realtors, investors and everyone in between, please feel free to drop a line for any advice, tips, leads, or assistance regarding this process as it is my first home purchase as well.
On to what I am looking for in a home, the following is a minimum requirement list:
Areas of primary interest: Colorado Springs; Monument; Castle Rock; Woodland Park; Manitou Springs; Pueblo
Home Features: 3+ Bedroom; 2+ bath; 1,000+ sq.ft; Updated Kitchen;
I love options and looking at houses all day so the basics is what I am starting with here. Though I have many personal tastes and preferences, I am trying to withold the personal wants for more practical income options. One thing I should note, as a 6'4" individual, if I can't/won't fit in the whole house then my interest will almost immediately fly out the window. I know it's a "tall" order, but I think you understand why! lol
