It is a transitional community where the Marines (mostly) are trying to maximize their housing allotment knowing they will move in the near future.

Since there's no HELOC brokers, you basically have to dial for dollars yourself to find the best deal.Regionals will have more flexibility, f. ex. there's a regional bank near me doing stated income no appraisal $100k HELOCs for properties in Alameda and Marin counties.

Evening BP,          I am thinking about getting my RE license in VA; the only problem is that I am an active duty Marine.

Is there a demand for boat storage, a general store type business that sells marine supplies, outdoor recreational supplies, and camping gear of the type that would be in demand at the state park?

For example two properties we purchased in the late 1990's in southern Marin county for high-$300K and mid-$400, respectively, are currently worth $1.25 and $1.5 million, respectively, and together throw off about $90K in free cash per year (after property taxes and insurance - both are paid off). 

Bigger Pockets,I was introduced to this website while talking to a coworker (we're both active Marines in Okinawa), so naturally I've jumped in and read a few of the "Ultimate guides", watched some videos and signed up for a Webinar.

I'm originally from Austin, Tx and have spent the last nearly 10 years in the Marine Corps as a C-130 pilot and am about to make the jump out of active duty service and into civilian aviation.

About a month and a half ago I was talking to one of my old buddies from the Marines and he was telling me about his new life as a Real Estate Investor doing primarily single family flips.
