Wisconsin Veterans Have Amazing Opportunity

Wisconsin Veterans returning from active duty have a unique opportunity to build long term wealth for thier future!

The Federal VA loan is designed to allow a veteran to purchase his or her home with no money down. The home can be up to 4 units, and must be owner occupied.

Because of this unique option, I believe vets owe it to themselves to look at buying four unit properties to live in. There are several reasons. We all know that real estate is a large source of most people's long term wealth, especially those who own rental property. Second, let's say I wanted to go out and buy a 4 unit property. I'm not a Veteran, and even if I intended to live in the 4 unit I would require a large down payment. The Vet does not. This means a vet has the unique opportunity to buy a future rental property, with no money out of his or her own pocket.

Why not buy something you can live in for a while, almost rent free, and then use to generate income when you are ready to buy a single family home. Believe me, if I was afforded this opportunity I would be taking advantage of it.

Add in the fact that Vets are extended the first time buyers tax credit until 4/30/2011, a year longer than everyone else, and you have an amazing opportunity to create wealth in your future.
