Currently Active Duty Military stationed in Point Mugu California right in Ventura County.

There's a reason the area's population has grown 60% since the War on Terror began just 15 years ago.That said, do plan on higher turnover due to PCS stations often lasting a mere 3 - 5 years, deployments and the like.

I am currently an active duty military officer stationed in Great Falls, MT.

I purchased the VA one already rented, at a discount, and the HI I lived in while stationed there.I have had the VA condo for almost ten years now, and while it has only gained some 50% in equity I have consistently increased rents and have very little vacancy loss. 

A shared vehicle, scooter, bicycle, or anything CAN be stationed on your property so users (residents and/or non residents) can access them.

People line up for the newest iPhone, but there's never a line at the gas station for a $30 burner.  

I'm stationed back at MacDill and discovered real estate investing when  trying to rent out a previous home I owned at my last duty station.

I've got a single family home in Vine Grove that I bought when I was stationed at Knox and it has been rental ever since I moved in 2013.
