Right on! What you folks are saying is starting to echo what the lady at Wells told me, more or less.

I’ll look into the military Credit Unions also. Beating the pavement is inevitable but this helps me narrow things down and screen out the BS loan agents.

Yeah I’ve read about ChaFa. There is another one for downtown through Centre City Development Corporation. It goes up to $75k down or 25%, whichever is less. Of course downtown has some more crashing to do before I would want to use even this loan. Then there’s the MCC. I believe there is another silent second program for the rest of SD county. Not sure. Maybe its ChaFa I’m thinking about.

I agree with you guys about timing. I’ll be waiting at least six months before I buy. I’ve read some people saying that 2000-01 prices are possible. It certainly looks like it but we’ll see. I started this thread to hear from some people with experience.

The loan broker at Wells told me that I can add a conventional loan to cover what the VA may not cover (here I’m thinking of the 2nd property down the road). I.e. If I want to buy a 2nd property at 300k and the VA will only cover 100k then I can get a conventional for 200k or vice versa. Am I understanding that right?

I’m assuming the loan restrictions would at this point be more restrictive than that.
