Thanks man, glad to see a presence on here from the local area!

I have done some reading up on the VA loan, and I did see that the buyer has to live on the property within 60 days of closing out the deal, with some exceptions. One thing I didn't see was, how long the buyer has to live on the property. I've heard just through talking with other people that it's 6 months, and I've also heard it's a year. Would you happen to have any info on that?

Also, if you don't mind me asking, what were some of the fees associated with the VA loan?

Thanks again Wil

@Jonna Weber thanks! I actually read your blogs yesterday about the Boise area, really enjoyed them. As someone who grew up in a military family, I've had the pleasure of living in many different parts of the country, and Boise has absolutely been one of my favorite areas! 

I'll keep an eye out for that Meet Up.

Thanks

Hey guys,

My name is Chris and I currently live in Mountain Home, ID, about 40 minutes southeast of Boise. I haven't started any investments yet, but I would like to buy my first multi-family home within the next 1-2 years, possibly using a VA loan. I've definitely done some research, but I'm sure there's a lot more to learn, or even just things I'm overlooking. Any advice would be much appreciated!

I came across BP through some online research. Found a lot of informative forums, and really dig how helpful of a community it seems to be!
