@Mohamed Benabdallah VA construction loans are a great product.

For the 10 year period spanning August 2014-2024, single-family prices in Austin nearly doubled, yielding an annualized appreciation rate of ~9.5%.With inflation nearing its 2% target and signs of a slowing labor market, The Federal Reserve is predicted to cut rates as many as three times before the end of 2024 (see here).

At the time I had a pretty good W2 job.I am also getting slow, but steady appreciation (good area, good schools) and I am able to raise rents a few % per year.... 

Matter of fact, the fed govt is currently going out of their way to make this more difficult to slow down the economy.

In the past I have sold the property  back to the original owner once they realized that it had been sold to me.One last thing: it is possible to clear the title via a court proceeding, but it is slow and expensive so make sure it is worth it if you go this route.

@Tim Phillips100% of the time I advise my client base in Memphis, TN to start slow and cautious.

I was working as a lead carpentry for a remodeling in company in Seattle, but left in Oct. 2023 to help with my family's property and turn my side work full time, which is slowing down.

It should apply, as a veteran myself, I have a soft spot for other vets using their VA loan to get started in real estate (it is how I got started, and it is easily the greatest loan product available).
