Post: Moving to Destin, FL Soon – Looking to House Hack My First Property with VA Loan

Hi BiggerPockets Community,
I'm currently living in Italy but will be moving to Florida soon, specifically to the Destin area. I'm planning to buy my first property there using my VA home loan and would love to connect with local investors who are familiar with the market. My goal is to house hack to help cover my mortgage and possibly generate some extra income.
I’m looking for advice on:
1. The Destin Market
• What should I know about buying property in Destin?
• Any tips for maximizing house hacking opportunities in this area?
2. Lenders and Financing
• Can anyone recommend lenders in Destin who are familiar with VA loans and can work well with first-time buyers?
I’m excited to start my real estate journey and want to make a smart, strategic move with this first property. Any insights, connections, or resources from experienced investors would be incredibly helpful!
Thanks in advance,
Keyshawn

Hi my name is Keyshawn and I’m a sophomore at Paul D Camp community college located in Franklin,Va. I play baseball there and with COVID going on we really couldn’t practice, so I had a lot of down time and came across real estate wholesaling. Some say you don’t need money to start some say you do and I’m completely lost, if theirs someone out there that has wholesaling experience and could help me get started I would appreciate it. Thanks!
