I’ve sold many properties and always turned down both VA or FHA , my properties were no more then 3 years old including 5 in villages they all sold in less then a month and if we remember the different houses bust , people with no equity in there homes walked away very quickly and FYI I am a vet
I am all in favor of providing good benefits for veterans. But, I think the VA loan program has done a disservice to many young military people. It presumes that buying a house is always better than renting and that houses are always a great investment. And, it teaches them that it is a good thing to buy a house with no down payment. I don't think these things are true and neither do most reputable financial advisors. I would never buy a house with no down payment, even if I could.
