Hello,
I am new to real estate investing and looking into multi family properties in the Buffalo, NY area. Recently I have started learning a bit about real estate mainly from this website and reading books (mainly BP and Rich Dad). I would appreciate any insight about the VA loan and the Buffalo market. I'm looking forward to learning more and getting my career started!

Welcome! You might want to consider joining local REIA to get access to professionals and tradesmen. Face time and real conversation with seasoned investors can only benefit you. I would also be cautious who I read/listen to and take advise primarily from seasoned investors, who have successful track record and something to back their experience with a number of properties they own, vs those "fluke" or one-two times high fliers who imagine they are pros after 1-2 flips and spew their advice. When you start talking to "investor friendly" realtors ask how many properties they sold to the investors this year and most importantly, how many properties do they own them selves. This should save you lots of time.
