    The thing that scares me is the 2-4% fees. I dont just have 20-37000 laying around. But having the house is kinda start of me having more stability in my life.
    I just dont want to keep waiting on saving when my first thought or plan is paying on the house is investing to myself

      Hey Ray - are you referring to the VA Funding Fee? If so, that can be rolled into the loan.

    Hi Jimmy! Here’s my situation: owe $450K 2.25% interest on a home that could sell for ~$650K-$700K. We’re done raising kids and need to downsize. My thought is to try to find a 4 plex closer to work. I’m afraid I’m in interest rate jail. Any ideas?

    • @JimmyVercellino
      @JimmyVercellino  Рік тому +1

      Hi Jake, sure. So long as a Veteran is going to occupy the new property you can convert that home into a rental property and use the remaining benefit you have leftover (estimated at 276,200) towards the home you plan to move into. Does that answer your question?

    How much more money is added to the agreed purchase price for the fees acquired to process the loan and what would the to be total amount that will be borrowed if I had an agreed purchase price of $545,000.00 with a seller? I’m in escrow right now and the amount to be borrowed with a VA loan seems to be excessively higher than the purchase price.
