@Matt M.I feel similarly, as a realtor here in Baltimore I have assisted some professionals who were selling turn key rentals on a smaller scale.

I am currently deployed and I need a trustworthy accountant from CT to assist me with my taxes this year.

I imagine this would come in handy when it is time to talk repayment, eviction proceedings, taxes, and if there is ever a rental assistance program that the president mentioned. 

Here's the link to the VA to determine how your situation fits into their funding fees.https://www.va.gov/housing-assistance/home-loans/funding-fee-and-closing-costs/Best of luck!

You can start by hiring a virtual assistant to help you set up calls with investors or create deal presentations.

I do assist with filling up my vacancies, which I enjoy doing.

More importantly, the aspect of providing value to others prior to asking for assistance or expecting something in return. 

I have spent the last few months learning and trying to educate myself, and will be interviewing a few RE agents tomorrow, hoping to find someone that will be a good fit.What questions should I be sure to ask when interviewing potential agents that will help me find out whether or not it's someone that will actually assist me on this path?

Since you're still in, I would recommend taking some college classes using your Tuition Assistance, that should cover your tuition and then you don't have to tap into your GI bill.

What is largely missing in the industry are good marketing processes to assist in funneling accredited investors and resources to assist sponsors in learning to work with investors.
