Well for one thing I just found he had lost his job and he needs that or they won't talk to him (he really should tell me these things sooner). For another he was a reservist never active duty. I don't really know how its supposed to work and he doesn't fill me in much. If anyone knows how a VA loan works, I would appreciate a run down of how to go through the motions. I'll share it with him.

@Randall Alan

Thanks for the advice it really does help a lot.

I dont actuall have any family that would be willing to invest save my brother who is as poor as i am.

That's why we are exploring other options for raising capital.

We were going to go through his VA loan but there is so much red tape its looking less and less viable, so we are trying to work out a plan B.

@Randall Alan

Thanks for the help. It honestly didn't occur to me to search the topic.

Crowdfunding would not be a loan it would just be looking for generosity. I know some crowdfunding offers certain rewards but those are usually youtube promotions that have some sort of content that people might want merch for.

Hello BP,

I am Matthew Desrosiers and I have always been intrigued with realeastate and the freedom such investments can bring. I am eager to get started and happy to be a part of BP. I am inexperienced and appreciate all the advise availeable and all that is to come.

I am also curious about crowdfunding my downpayment as a way of getting started, does this seem viable?

I am new to all this but I couldn't find anything saying you couldn't and actually was having the same thought.
