So my last idea is to sell the property back to the bank - The bank cannot foreclose on the house due to husband's military SCRA protections.

👋 Uncle Mike  here and I’ve proudly served our country as a military veteran.

Waukegan is 5 minutes from a huge Naval base so there's usually no shortage of military families to rent to.

I am exclusively dealing with Section 8 and military tenants.

I am retired military I will check with USAA!

Still, not knowing where you are going is tough.For military folks, eventually they usually decide on a hub where they want to plant roots (usually when kids are closer to school age) and then the hub stays and the party in the military comes back to the hub.You have the VA benefits and they are great.

My house is near a military base and hospital, but it's 3 bedrooms and most people who do well on FF have a studio or 1 bedroom.

I’m active duty military originally from Alabama, currently living in Maryland.

A stance similar to militaries stance of staying apolitical.     

Let me explain to you why I chose CA as well as my goals and strategy.For starters, I'm active duty military, and this has given me access to a VA home loan which gives me better leverage to easily purchase a property with zero down.
