They say "we support the troops/veterans," then you have LCpl Smith in the common area bragging about his 7 year car loan at 18% APR for his Dodge Charger.Unless you need a DTI over 50% (...) or that 0% down to be north of $1m (...), this is currently the overall best-in-class for VA loans.

Ordinarily when people lose their job, they stop spending money.

They (ordinarily, per the standard disclosure language) did not give the PM permission to share that information.

I know I've had troops working for me that made half as much as me yet bought cars and trucks that were tens of thousands more than I spent. 

Just ask your buyer what the highest percentage is before not considering a property a deal.3) Take the reduced answer, subtract your rehab approximation.4) Subtract your expected wholesaling fee.5) Subtract 3% for closing costs.The answer ordinarily would be your maximum allowable offering to the seller, but because an agent is involved (and need to be compensated, along with your fee, in addition to closing costs)...you will need to negotiate well to produce something that can be called a deal if the current ‘Sold’ comps are not tens of thousands above your closing price.The more ‘tens of thousands’ above the total closing costs the better for a deal. 6) Because your agent will be using a standard contract, you will be asked about a closing date....you can just ask your buyer how fast a closing can occur if needed (before speaking with the agent to complete the purchase agreement.)7) You will be asked how much of a down payment you want to offer in the agreement.

It's a shame that we focus only one day on the brave acts that protect our country.Actually, it is two days since we celebrate memorial Day, however, I agree with your point, there should be more awareness and thankfulness for those who serve.Happy Veterans Day to all our troops and a sincere hope that those abroad defending us come home safe to their families.

It's the worst press a congressperson could get to have the military not get paid, especially when you have troops in harm's way.With all that said, the DoD is supposed to be back to work on Monday, including all civilians, so it should be a mute point now.

(Check out Armadillo, its an amazing documentary about some Danish troops in Afghanistan) The VA Loan is really an amazing benefit when it comes to REI.

And also, Fort Hood is still the #1 training destination for reserve and national guard troops. 

My buddy is an ammo troop out there and he said the real estate market is jacked!
