I’ve noticed that credit unions tend to have slightly better interest rates since they typically are not for profit whereas a normal bank or broker is.

Hello,I’m a military member brand new to real estate.

@Ian Rysdale I think you will find credit unions to have less red tape and are much quicker.

I got 15% down from a credit union and then I bought all the furniture How did you add value to the deal?

I think the location would be perfect for a military recruiter or a satellite office due to the small space.

Hi everybody,My husband is military and we currently own our home in Knoxville (purchased for $450k, we owe about $300,000 with 2.6% interest on 15 year loan).

I would assume your local credit union is not licensed in the subject property state.What state are you looking to purchase in?

For example, my "Buy Box" is single family homes (at least 2bedrooms / prefer 3bedooms, turn-key ready (no rehabbing needed), in military towns.Property Type: Single Family / Multifamily (duplex/fourplex)Bedroom Count: 2bed/3bed, etcCondition: Distress (rehab needed) / Turn-key (no rehab)Location: Towns/States/Cities I hope this helps!

I'd first look at local credit unions and then expand outwards from there and know you can sometimes get financing outside of the state.Another option is to work with a private money lender.

Good evening everyone, My name is Mike I am a 16-year military man, quickly approaching retirement.
