Michael.Edit: Are there any suggestions for getting information/documents relating to the commercial aspects of this property that would be very helpful in my assesment?

There is always so much growing in all aspects of investing.

You also have the commission aspect so you save a bit of money.

Lots of ways to provide ancillary real estate services that will let you see a different aspect of a deal and still earn some side cash to save up.

lots of detail and valuable lessons learned.I am curious about the partnership aspect and how/why that fell apart?

Looking for one that can handle both aspects. 

The BP calcs are great for both LTRs and STRs to help give you a better idea of what aspects of a deal you need to think about. 

@Matthew Reardon is correct and as he said, Chapter 3 covers the specific guidelines set for by the VA. https://www.benefits.va.gov/WARMS/docs/admin26/handbook/ChapterLendersHanbookChapter3.pdfThat's not to say the lender might further require that they stay for 1 year, 2 years, etc. but I am not 100% on this aspect of the process, just that it is not a VA requirement.

Dur to so much conflicting advice I am scheduling a live strategy session with a firm specializing in entity formation strategies, legal aspects and tax advisement for real estate notes.My communications with multiple custodians, attorneys and asset management firms has been informative but confusing.

I’m a newbie so learning these additional aspects to look out for is very helpful
