Starting out after the military

Enrique Laguna
Posted

I am about to retire after 24 years from the Marine Corps. I already own one rental property in NC and I want to expand not only in that area but other states as well, I am currently in California and own my own primary residence here. I want to use a HELOC from my current investment property's equity to use as the down payment for a second investment property but not sure how my not so good credit will affect me. What or how should I start this journey
