Affordable Payment for Veterans / Zero Down through VA Financing

Using the Zillow Mortgage Calculator, a VA loan with 0% down is about $1,000 per month for just the mortgage payment! Or $1,600 per month including the HOA payment, taxes, and insurance. After you factor your tax savings on your income, the net payment is likely lower than what you can rent this home for!

Cash Flow Examples

With 50% down, you gross cash flow is about $1,300 (rent) – $952 (mortgage, taxes, insurance, HOA) = $348 per month
