Just a follow up.

I have decided to go with the 0 down VA Loan on a 4 plex type property.

Would it we wise to look for a property at the top of my pre approval amount?

If my plan is to live in one rent the other units for the 1st year

I have a good contingency fund.

Thanks,

the return  on investment for the cash is .025 (savings account).

I have no real need for the $$$ as in no upcoming expenses.

I am thinking 0% VA multi family, living in one unit being the PM forth other units.

Then using the $$$ for a down on another property.

Location will be needs of the Army, hopping Ft. Lewis,or Ft. Carson

I am in the military. I have 1 home breaking even rented in NC, with 60,000 equity. I am living in a flip that I bought for 40,000 + another 35,000 in rehabilitation, that apraised for 138,000. I used cash for the purchase and rehab, then did a cash out refinance of 100k. I will move this year and rent out my current home.

my questing is should i use some of my 100k to pay 25%+ down or use a 0% VA lone to buy a 3-4 plex at my next duty station?
