First investment property! San Antonio area!

[Justin Yi]

Hi everyone. My name is Justin. First off, thanks in advance for all the useful information you’re about to give. I’m new to the area and currently in the military. San Antonio will by my first duty station so I’d like to purchase an investment property to house hack and/or rent in the future.

I’ve looked around to both multi family homes and single family homes. For a single family I’d like to stay under $250k and multi family under $350k.

My biggest problem is that I’ve been here for almost a year but due to training, I do not know the area very well.

I have about 15k saved and would like to take care of majority of my home related bills with my bah, which is $1600.

I hope I provided enough info to get some good info and would like to get in touch with a good agent who's familiar with the VA loan.

Thank you again!
