Apparently, I have a few more thoughts...
It's great that you can get a VA loan with nothing down. The catch is that should the property you purchase lose value, you could become upside down financially and psychologically. You never want to be underwater on a house. If you have to sell for some unforeseen reason, it could cost you money OOP, or ruin your credit.
The arguably more difficult thing is if the house loses value, even if you don't have to sell. Many people can't live with their house becoming worth less than they owe. During the Great Recession, lots of people walked away from their homes just because they weren't "worth" what used to be. In my market, real estate came roaring back, further pricing the people who walked away out of the market. Other places still haven't come back and probably never will.
Yeah, no-down loans are great, but they're not risk free. Better to be sure you've really thought the decision to buy an expensive property through. I'm not saying don't do it, just that there is a lot to consider before you decide.
