Specifically, for the strategy I used, I did have to have quite a bit of money saved up ($90k) and that was from yrs of saving before, during and after the military.Before I even knew about house hacking and 4plexs and the VA home loan I was building my credit just because and just saving nearly my whole paycheck while I was living in the barracks, eating the food in the DFAC (Chow hall), no expensive toys and even after my contract ended I moved back home and lived with my dad for free and continued saving nearly my whole paycheck while I was working for AZ DOC as a Corrections Officer. basically, just keeping my expenses as low as possible and stacking cash away so I could take advantage of opportunities.So, it would behoove you to do the same and keep your expenses low, don't go into debt buying an expensive doodad like a $40k car, and a bunch of bad debt, and take advantage of one of the greatest loan products on the market!!

I had so many issues with August, that I have committed to never buy any of their products ever again.
