I have been looking to manage a sober living or transitional housing building for some time. I’ll message you to discuss further. Definitely interested!

I'm active duty Air Force with four properties. Three are VA loans. Using your VA loan is a great way to start in real estate investing.

I wish you all the best.

If you cannot find what you’re looking for in your market and you don’t want to invest too far, consider pivoting to a single family home. I had the same intention in 2019, but available duplexes weren’t feasible. I shifted to a small new home build and it generates nice monthly cash flow and equity since.

I wish you all the best.

Welcome to BiggerPockets!

I have less than six months before I retire from the Air Force. Right now, I own four properties and three are VA loans. If moving is not something feasible for you to use it, there are other ways to get started. Feel free to reach out any time.

Right now, I start SkillBridge on Monday.

I wish you all the best.

I'm active duty Air Force (for less than six months) before retiring after 30 years. I have four properties and three are VA loans. Using your VA benefit is a great way to get started in real estate.

When buying properties, lenders wanted to ensure the property we were leaving had a lease agreement or under a property management contract.

Qualifying for a VA loan has slightly different criteria than a conventional loan.

I wish you all the best in your investing journey.

Thank you for your service and congrats on the upcoming retirement, brother!

I know I can use it for a MFH and house hack. Did you do that, or use the VA loan for your primary, live in it for 2 years, buy another primary, live in it, etc?

Yes, I lived in each home.😉

I think lenders will start rolling in the agent commission into the buyer’s loan. There are lenders doing this now.
