Why not borrow some of their resources, personnel, ship some patients that are not contagious but need care to those facilities.

There are different rules for active duty armed forces personnel who are transferred under orders. 

It is not 'bad', but there are the predictable issues of dealing with tenants, property managers, maintenance issues or maintenance personnel, etc.

My plan at the time was buy a home at every duty station and eventually have maybe 3-4 properties with equity I didn't pay for.During my recent deployment the news came out that the Air Force is cutting personnel in a big way.

Hopefully, you will have some time to meet a few  of us newbie and other experienced personnel at the local Real Estate Investor meeting. 

They are constantly investing more into their services and personnel and really have not raised their rates the entire time (other than going from 2.5% to 3% payment processing fee when they switched to Stripe).   

But operating on such a large scale requires personnel in different cities and Im not sure if this is translating to KC, so i really want some input from people with experience specifically with that local team on a granular level

I can't tell you how many labor hours I've lost out on due to their lack of procedures and quality personnel. 

I prefer B & C rentals both as personnel investments and investments for my clients.
