I am in the Navy stationed in Japan, I own a SFH in WA State.

@Elenis C.If you’re ex-military, I think the Navy Federal Credit Union does it...I think they also offer some of the highest LTV on HELOCs for your primary residence too...up to 95%.

We invest for two reasons. 1) for me to be able to stay home with our kids while providing our family with an 2nd income 2) for my husband to be able to permanently retire in 15 years when he retires from the navy (god/navy willing).We are buy and hold investors in single class A real estate, which allows us to invest while working full time!

@Navi Singh I just found a CPA in Vernon who is comfortable working with real estate investors and LLCs.  

I am currently serving as an Officer in the Navy.

I am a vet, but in my not-so-bright youth I didn't save a lot of money so when I got out of the Navy I had about 20k but I used that up to hold me over until I found my current job.

Her mortgage is $2500/mo. and we are renting her place out to a dream tenant (Navy officer and his wife) that we rarely hear from, but they keep the place emaculate and the check is in the mail early every month!

James I agree...I wasnt fortunate enough to serve our Country however my girlfriends son just commissioned as an Officer in the Navy and it was cool seeing the respect given through a solute.

I once sent a Navy recruiting brochure to the home of the parents of one such drug dealer and explained that the guy can do 4 years in the navy or 24 in state pen.

My husband is active duty navy so we are buy and hold investors.
