No veterans here, but I know what I can try to do. Split it up and make a go at first time homebuyer program twice. Hope we can do that. We'll see.

I was approved three years ago but didn't take the bait. Townhouse was not in a great shape upon inspection. Renting is a little more in vogue now depsite the tax deductions from owning. Just none of the Florida insurance and PMI problems for now. (whew)
