NEW MEMBER! starting my journey as a investor.
Goodmorning / Goodafternoon every one! My name is Kevin and I'm a new member of BP.
A little about me! I'm 28 years old, married and have wonderful 2 year old daughter, I'm currently an active service member of the US Army and is currently station in Fort Benning GA. So far I have 2 properties and closing on my second one. I'm currently using the VA loan benefits to purchase my properties.
I'm new to the Investment world and I have little knowledge about the VA Loan benefits but feel free to ask me a any question and I would gladly answer them for you if I know the answer.
I guess my first question would be.... is anyone familiar or an expert of the VA benefits !! if so please help a brother out!!
MAHALOS.

Hey Kevin, firstly thank you for your service! I used to be a loan officer specifically for military members for a not for profit organization called AAFMAA that specialized in VA Loans. VA Loans are a powerful tool and I urge anyone who may have VA Loan eligibility to look into what you can and cannot do with them. Because of the restrictions on what properties can and cannot be used with a VA loan "house hacking" with a VA loan is something I have seen people do.
To any military or prior service I say use your benefits, you earned that benefit!
