The more veterans entering the civilian world, the more VA loans we will see.

I would also like to mention that transitioning to civilian life is difficult, so remember to take a deep breath sometimes and give yourself a break, it's a process and it gets easier every day.

You may be be looking at more than just paint and flooring, given the caliber of tenant that inhabit these types of properties (obviously a lot of them had to be evicted).Being all-in at a price such that you'll get gross rents of 4% per month is where you need to be on these low-end apartment complexes.

I am a military professional of 9 years, and have civilian experience in  a construction project management capacity.

I'm in the military and am getting out in 10 months to walk into the wonderful civilian IT sector.I want to start investing, but am not sure if this is the right time.

Sounds like you then have 4 inhabitable trailers on a rural lot lacking utilities.

My tenants move in 7/1.I actually ended up doing things a bit differently than planned, but I think I'm still happy with the results.A couple approached me about wanting to rent it all out as a 3/2(instead of a 2/1 and a 1/1 as I had planned.)They were only willing to pay 1500(which is still above my lowest happy price point of 1400)But, the tenant is very handy(he's actually a civilian contractor at a local Air Force base) and is willing to do all maintenence and repairs and upkeep himself.

I agree that something bigger may be wrong with it, however it is available for an FHA loan and my realtor explained that usually means that it is inhabitable and not in dire need.

Working on my transition from military to civilian and my plan is to dive into real estate and absorb as much information as I can here on BiggerPockets.
