With two years left until military retirement, prepare for retirement and investing by building cash reserves, developing multiple income streams, and growing education.Good luck!

I have always loved them, they keep it clean, u can even ask the military to directly transfer monies into your account without the hassle of asking tenants if they get late, only downfall is they are legally allowed to leave the house anytime based upon their transfer status - still worth every bit!

Did you use a local bank/credit union or a private lender?

Hey everyone currently active duty military I would love utilize my va loan for investment  purposes don’t know where to start  in GA btw 

Currently I had borrowed 12.5k to consolidate credit card debt and I can borrow up to 23k. 2) Would it be wise to roll this into my home mortgage so I can get the tax break for the interest and allow for more borrowing power from a credit union?

MTRs are great, and there is a lot of opportunity with the different medical facilities in the area, as well as the influx of military and the gaining popularity of MTRs among the general public, not just traveling nurses.

Federal along with state chartered credit  unions that are not permitted to charge prepayment penalties are also competitive right now on rate and more and more are building out construction platforms, although very conservative on construction originations.  

Generally, your local, community, credit union will have best rates, local decisions and deep roots in the community. 

Companies and even military bases can close down and move away, but this is highly unlikely with state University. 

Almost all local banks and Credit Unions offer loans on Commercial Retail properties
