I dont want to to have to use it all if I dont have to and instead keep some for improvements, but depending on the house price I could do more to get a better loan (FHA vs traditional, etc.)- I have plans to go back to school for a MBA in the next few years, so that's something I'm looking at as well. 

Hi, so i'm about to to buy my first property with the VA loan.

I still have awhile to to go before I retire.

I have a background in insurance restoration estimating and I'm willing to do whatever I have to to get my foot in the door and learn the ropes. 

I would Love to find out who owns it and purchase it ( if the Price is right of course ) , I just don't know how to go about finding out / Contacting who I need to , to Try and Purchase it.Thank you for any help and information on how to best go about finding out who Owns this property , and any other Properties that look Abandoned /Distressed .I have considered Knocking on Neighborhood Doors and asking them in Person, as well as Putting a Letter in these same neighbors Mail Boxes to hopefully get their help in telling me the name(s) and Contact information ). 

This is going to to be awesome...

Although, your agent has a point, but just like any property, you've got to do the legwork to to make sure it's a good deal.

@Jeff Brenot I don't know how that particular county is to to deal with but TX is non disclosure.  

I'm looking to to learn more about investing as well as share some exciting investment opportunities here in Saint John.

I use this one for both those who are intimidated by the standard contract, and for experienced investors who want simplicity and speed.Get your state's standard contract (look on line or just ask a Realtor)and do what you need to to save it as a Word document you can edit.
