How to Use the VA Loan In A Sellers’ Market with Jon Lallande (one of the best)

Episode: 145

Jon Lallande

Join your hosts, David Pere and Alex Felice, with guest Jon Lallande as they talk everything about VA loans, what makes it cool and not cool, and the one-time restoration entitlement that VA loan users need to hear about before they start building their portfolios.

Throughout the discussion, the guys build up and poke holes in everything they can discuss regarding VA loans and their pros and cons. For Jon, a user benefits from a VA loan's higher chance of closing than other options. Meanwhile, Alex thinks it is disproportionately advertised to entice people into not-so-savvy investments.

As a piece of advice to first-time investors, Jon believes in the importance of saving, understanding the available options on the table, and understanding how the market doesn't always just appreciate forever. In this episode, tune in to the different opinions that weigh out about VA loans as the guys tackle the topic in technicalities.

My name is David Pere, I am an active duty Marine, and have realized that service members and the working class use the phrase "I don't get paid enough" entirely too often. The reality is that most often our financial situation is self-inflicted. After having success with real estate investing, I started From Military to Millionaire to teach personal finance and real estate investing to service members and the working class. As a result, I have helped many of my readers increase their savings gap, and increase their chances of achieving financial freedom! - Click here to SUBSCRIBE: https://bit.ly/2Q3EvfE to the channel for more awesome videos!
