Altus AFB!! Who did you piss off lol!!! Spent a lot of time down there doing a lot of storm damage repair!! Altus is rough with a few patches of newer development. If I were going to buy it would be in one of the smaller towns around the area, or a piece of property.... Altus proper............ no thanks!!!
Good luck and invest in a good security system if you buy in Altus!!
Cannot help much on Altus specifics but as a long time mortgage lender - pick a lender and a Realtor you have complete confidence and trust in. Look into down payment assistance programs like Oklahoma Finance Housing Agency's program or the REI Oklahoma's DPA program as you consider your financing options. Pre-qualification should be absolutely free and have no strings attached. You mentioned Altus as a duty station so you need to check into VA home loan options to see if you qualify for a non down payment VA home loan. Always choose a fixed rate loan.
This is the biggest financial decision most folks ever make - take your time and be deliberate. Weigh your options wisely.
Lastly, thank you for your service.
Well it could’ve been worse, you could have been sent somewhere horrible-like...California. Or Massachusetts. Or New York City.
