Buying with a VA loan? Start here before scrolling listings. 👇
Too many Veterans fall in love with a house, THEN try to get pre-approved. That's backwards. 🚫
The VA journey has a specific order that protects you and makes your offer stronger:
1️⃣ Preparation — COE + budget + credit
2️⃣ Lender pre-approval — Get your VA-approved letter
3️⃣ Agent search — Must know VA escape clause + MPRs
4️⃣ Property search — Shop with VA rules in mind
5️⃣ Appraisal & inspection — Value + condition are 2 different things
6️⃣ Closing — Review that Closing Disclosure early
