Let me explain to you why I chose CA as well as my goals and strategy.For starters, I'm active duty military, and this has given me access to a VA home loan which gives me better leverage to easily purchase a property with zero down.

I’m active duty Air Force and maxed out my VA loan with three properties.Birmingham has some cheaper properties, but may not bring the cash flow that STRs in Florida might bring.It all depends on your timeline, numbers, funds, and comfort level.

Accepting a VA offer helps get vets into homes!

I am also waiting on my VA disability which will act as another source of income while allowing me to qualify for the VA loan, yet that is a wild card option.

Hello,I own a quadplex in VA.

@Jake O'BrienHouse hacking requires specific occupancy requirements for FHA, VA, and conventional loans.

Have a VA call your list and try to find folks willing to sell.I'm not doing this for land, but it's generally what I'm doing with other properties I'm interested in.

NC DENR and VA DEQ have great intentions, and I support their efforts in general, but I can't afford $150,000 for all the environmental surveys and sediment studies for the small acre land disturbance area that I build.
