@Michael Zollars:

So far having to pay lot rent for the time I live in it and work on it is the only downside I see.

I/o HELOC is the best because you would not be charged interest until you withdraw funds.

Putting more money down to increase equity is rarely a good idea. Considering that VA loans do not have PMI, your best bet is 0% down.
