I am strongly consideration going the route of purchasing distressed and/or vacant properties (commercial, factory, warehouse, multi-family, etc.) for development in an effort to restore neighborhoods. 

This will increase your current mid 3% rates into higher 4% rates so we'd have to do the math on it to see if by restoring your VA entitlement it will be worth the extra "premium," paid in rate and closing costs to refinance are worth it.

Well...I started investing in fire damages after being in the fire restoration industry and that was over 10 years ago

In my experience as a contractor the trend is restoration of old homes with the addition of modern amenities is what more affluent people are wanting.

Would like to buy foreclosure/distressed and have one of my many contractor friends help restore it.
