I sold both properties in VA and paid for almost have of this up front and remodeled it with the rest of my savings.

I am looking to use my VA home loan this year, and would love to score a 2-4 unit in Marathon that I could live in for about a year, rent out the additional units, then only reside there from Jan-April each year. 

So im currentky in virginia and im trying to invest in some of areas.

I would recommend looking into these institutions for potential favorable portfolio loan terms:State Department FCU (DC, VA, SC)Hanscom FCU (MA)Workers Credit Union (MA)Signature FCU (VA)Keep us abreast of what you learn, and feel free to PM me if you need anything else!

I'm going through the process of getting my notary commission in the state of Virginia; to become a mobile signing agent. 

Around the Northern Virginia area certain locations got really creamed (over-corrected) and we have had quite a bounce, I neglected to mention two properties that I bought as intended rentals and ended up flipping.

Living in Virginia, I have purchased and later sold a single family in Alaska and Ohio.

I was surprised to find out about this when I did the other day, simply because I thought all 100% financed loans were only issued by the VA and USDA. 

I read in your profile that you are unsure of how to finance - have you since decided to go VA loan?

I'm in the Washington DC, Maryland and Virginia market.
