VA Loan - Use in the Military or wait until I get out? HELP!

Hello, in the last few weeks I've really grown infatuated with real estate investing, specifically multifamily homes. I am currently a married E-4 in the Army at Fort Bragg, NC. (Fayetteville) My question is should I utilize the VA Loan to purchase a quadplex now or should I wait until I ETS and head to my target market in Houston, TX. Please keep in mind I will be house hacking and I also make an extra $1160 a month in BAH which would be pocketed while hacking. I have roughly 21 months left on my contract.
