A diverse group of military members, veterans, and real estate professionals pose together at the Simple Wealth Academy Holiday Mixer 2024, celebrating community, education, and wealth-building initiatives for the U.S. military.

Simple Wealth Academy (SWA), founded in December 2023 in Irvine, California, is disrupting the military real estate space by empowering active-duty service members and veterans with education on leveraging VA Loan benefits and creative financing strategies. Through virtual coaching, community support, and mission-driven initiatives like Mission 333, SWA is helping military families build long-term, generational wealth through real estate.
San Diego, CA - Military members across the United States face a challenge that traditional financial education programs consistently miss: building sustainable wealth while navigating frequent relocations and unpredictable deployments. While most military financial programs focus on budgeting and debt management, Simple Wealth Academy identified a different opportunity: real estate investing for military members through strategic use of VA benefits combined with house hacking and co-living models.

"We saw active duty service members and veterans sitting on one of the most powerful financial tools available, but nobody was teaching them how to actually use it to build cash-flowing assets," said Josh Villareal, Founder and CEO [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUGka_pkhBiuzFJEIj5hDwA] at Simple Wealth Academy. "The VA loan for investment property allows zero down payment, yet most military members use it once for a primary residence and never touch it again."

The academy launched in 2020 after Villareal, a former E-5 in the U.S. Navy, spent two years researching the specific challenges military families encounter when attempting to enter real estate markets. His team has since helped clients acquire over one billion dollars in real estate assets.

Military members face three main obstacles with existing wealth-building approaches. First, traditional investment advice assumes stable geographic location for five to ten years. Service members receive permanent change of station orders every two to four years on average, making conventional buy-and-hold strategies difficult. Second, deployment schedules create gaps in active property management capability. Third, most real estate education programs ignore the unique advantages military members possess through VA home loan benefits, treating service members as typical first-time buyers.

Simple Wealth Academy's approach centers on what Villareal calls the Simple Wealth Blueprint [https://www.simplewealthrealestate.com/sign-up?el=website], a structured three-step methodology. The program teaches military members how to purchase multifamily properties using VA benefits, then implement house hacking and co-living strategies to generate immediate monthly cash flow.

"The co-living model changes everything for active duty members," explained Villareal. "You live in one bedroom, rent out the others to fellow service members or young professionals, and the rent covers your mortgage plus generates positive cash flow."

After meeting VA occupancy requirements at a primary residence, service members can keep that property as a rental when they receive new orders. They purchase their next home at the new duty station using VA benefits again through VA loan entitlement restoration. According to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau [https://www.consumerfinance.gov/], the VA loan entitlement can be reused multiple times because it is not a one-time benefit. Once a veteran sells a property purchased with a VA loan or pays off the loan, the entitlement becomes available again. This allows military members to build a rental property portfolio across multiple duty stations while generating monthly cash flow and building equity.

The program includes property analysis frameworks, financing structures specific to VA benefits, and property management systems designed for deployed service members. Our live training sessions [https://www.simplewealthrealestate.com/sign-up?el=website] help military members understand the fundamentals before committing to the full SWA mentorship program.

Simple Wealth Academy has an experienced team that will guide military members step by step through their first acquisition and beyond. For more information, visit simplewealthrealestate or schedule a strategy call.About Simple Wealth Academy:
