Thank you for sharing your story kris!

@Chris Watson That's great information, thank you for sharing.

I'm a local realtor in the area/investor and I have a massive vendor directory list that I can share.

There appears to be some confusion about information I shared during the Immigration panel at last year’s Iowa Ideas conference in Cedar Rapids.

@Nate Ginsberg do you mind sharing what numbers you are getting out of the duplex in Leominster?

If anyone is interested in information regarding eligibility and use information on VA Loans, just sharing.

I few “bad apples” have infected the basket and when I see a blanket judgment on a whole group I care deeply about, I must share my thoughts.I used to help investors flip multi-million-dollar homes in Marin County California, one of the most affluent pack of zip codes in the country.

You'd essentially be sharing your home or renting a bedroom in your basement.
