Co-owner investment with VA loan and traditional loan

[Imke Daniel]

Hi,

My boyfriend and I are looking at buying an investment property in Big Bear Lake. He is a veteran and wants to use his VA loan option, suggesting I could make payments to him for my poertion of the loan. I however an looking to gain tax benefits and tought it would make sense to get my own loan for the purchase. Is that even a possibility? can we co-own a property with our own seperate loans?
