Other BP threads seem to indicate a structural engineer could make the call, but that getting one is pricey.

I desire to connect with individuals who have had experience investing in real estate while serving in the military on active duty.

Also when you are under contract and get condo docs, make sure to read the meeting minutes (for the past year if available) they will indicate if there are any talks of an upcoming special assessment (which you don't want).

When an individual landlord prices their rental, they do based on what the other ones in the neighborhood have rented for. 

Well, of course it depends on the individual circumstances, the amount of time comitted and the capital available.

So I said all of that to say... lol, Yes, I think you can absolutely find a PM that would help answer some questions, and I hope you find some kind individuals. :-) All the best!  

Best neighborhood and best assets are subjective and largely based on the individuals capabilities (balance sheet, skill set, time etc.)

@Mario MoralesI think this is a common question and the value that an agent will bring will vary by individual needs.

BiggerPockets or LinkedIn can also help you connect with like-minded individuals. 

A mid-term rental could be an great option during the 6-7 months you're away since it appeals to traveling professionals, remote workers, or individuals relocating and offers stable income without the constant turnover of short-term rentals.
