I work a lot with investors outside of the US from a tax perspective but from a mortgage perspective, as mentioned above hard money or DSCR is probably your best bet.

Liquidating the property is by far your best bet. 

Most of us enjoy progress, we like to move the needle.I technically retired in 2015 from my W2 job on rental income.

I have 21 units and have recently formed a Series LLC for all 21 units. That has gone smoothly with the exception of one unit that I have my disabled brother living in. I have placed 50% ownership of that one unit in ...

Ayer, Billerica, Hudson, Maynard - those are going to be your best bet for cash flow in Middlesex County.

@Shawn Tuma & @Chris KayVery difficult in today's market to cashflow putting 0% down:(5-10 years ago it was possible, but prices have increased faster than rents.Your best bet is to find a property that needs work, but will still pass a VA appraisal/inspection. 

Even at $60,000 a unit - that is a $1.2 million deal... and realistically I bet they will be over $100,000 each... all just a guess... but when you get into these price points and you are "new to real estate" as your title in your post suggests - I think you are probably getting in over your head for a first deal.  

I basically just told them when they moved in that any drama that may arise from them sharing the house is between them and has nothing to do with me (as long as the house/people aren't being physically harmed).If you do end up renting to veterans I think your best bet to ensure everyone gets along is to just make one lease for all 4 bedrooms.

I bet, when you started investing,  this day seemed so far off it was silly.

i am totally impressed with the way 'guru' out there trying to influence people promising there's a gold cave somewhere from 'infinite banking' to 'my own the greatest system ever' :-) I bet they save their money in the crypto token as well.
