However after contacting the VA Mortgage Center we learned that we could get the same for no money down and possibly no closing costs. Plus with my 10% disability the pot got sweetened even more.
The question is has anyone else gone thru the process of using an approved lender for a VA loan and what are your thoughts.
We are so much looking forward to moving down and we look at homes every single day on the TV site.

Thanks, Merle
