I was still in the Army at Ft Hood in Killeen and a fellow soldier skipped out on me.

Being in the Army, I have the added benefit of the VA loan, so I started looking for multi-family homes to purchase in our current town of Savannah, GA.

I thought Salvation Army was going to pay it for me."

@John Teachout I agree with you and the others not preaching doom and gloom on this.For perspective, I was in the US Army and deployed to Africa in 2015 when then President Obama sent the military to help prepare for Ebola.Long story short: November 2014 forecast was 1 million DEATHS (not cases, which was a far higher forecast) per month by January 2015 in afflicted areas.

I’m retired Army and starting my real estate career.

Years ago when I spent some time in Pakistan and Sudan you would find these things were in a lot of the expat homes.

This was her response to some of my questions: "My son likes to have a home to come when on Army leave, vacation, family emergencies etc.; also he wants me to live in and take care of the property due to a work a injury that's recently placed me on temporary disability from the federal government..

They remind me of the wall hanging at my brother's house that reads, "Home is where the Army sends us." 

The owner I worked for could afford an army of attorneys, but he was a depression-era kid, and hated the idea of having to spend money on attorneys.  

Not only did i provide the normal pics of damage, but I photographed behind the fridge, behind the jumbo outlet plates and showed the Army liaison the actual blinds vs new blinds.
