A little about me: I'm a two-time combat veteran with the US Air Force.

Your place reads dark with all of the ceiling wood- I don't think you had professional photos taken indoors? 

You’re asking the right question…I’m active duty Air Force with three rental properties, and I have three VA loans.Sometimes purchasing a home that’s close to turnkey may work if the numbers do. 

Traditionally, DSCR loans that allowed STR have always wanted DSCR to be calculated on long term rental rates OR 12 months of actual performance or some heavily hair cutted version of Air DNA and all of these products would price gauge on rate.

Salt air not so great for machinery.  

Using your VA loan benefit is another great way to get started in real estate investing.I’m active duty Air Force with four properties.

However, there's no AC and heat there and I have already purchased min splits air conditioners and an electrician has also laid the lines for me.

I've refined and updated my buy box, currently SF detached houses built since year 2000, with 3 bedrooms, 2+ baths, central air, and 2 car garages, in areas with good schools, low crime and economic growth. 

Its appearance in an office chatroom gave it an added air of legitimacy.

Also, air conditioning removes moisture/humidity from the interior airspace, and nearly every home in the Carolinas runs AC during the warm months.Crawlspaces tend to be where the majority of problems occur.
