What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Finding out that my next assignment was in Wichita Falls, we noticed that our Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) didn't cover enough to get us in any decent home, but we could purchase a home of much better quality to live in.

How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

Zillow, talked with owners and agreed on a price.

How did you finance this deal?

VA Loan

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

We purchased this from a For Sale by Owner, with no Realtor while I was stationed overseas in South Korea.
