What Loan type should I use
I'm looking to move to a new duty location. I am fortunate enough that the home I purchased here gave me a decent profit. I'm looking to buy some form of multiplex and am wondering if it smarter to go conventional and put the 20% down or use the VA loan with no money out of pocket pay the funding fee and have the money available for a future purchase? I only plan on staying in the home for a year max before purchasing a second property any benefits or drawbacks from each would be appreciated.
