Hey everyone,

Im here to learn all about real estate investing as well as networking. Im 25, and currently in the Air Force Guard. Im planning on using my VA loan to purchase a quadplex in Brooklyn when i come home from Iraq. I'd also like to get some opinions if its worth it. Any advice will be greatly appreciated thank you!

Hey @Dionis Dvorin, welcome to BP, & Thank You For Your Service!

What's guiding you to NYC, are you originally from there, or do you have a job lined up when you come back.  Buying a 4-plex in Brooklyn is a great way to start.  It may not completely eliminate your monthly payment, but it will most likely make it cheaper than renting.

Best of luck!
