Towards paying your mortgage, paying down other debt or savings?

Some counties have laws that prevent you from bringing in new homes without their approval after the sites have sat vacant...if they were never developed, I'm not sure if this will apply. 

We have targeted 2-4 units that need minimum repair (as long as the property can be approved by VA appraiser).

Here's how it works, regardless if it's on market, off market or off Broadway.1 - When a Purchase AGreement has been signed off on by both parties, the PA will say how much of a DP you are putting up, and how much financing you need.2 - Lender agrees to provide (if approved) the funding needed, minus your DP.3 - Closing date is set, usually at the title company used by the lender.4 - You bring your DP to the closing, the lender provides the paperwork for the loan.5 - You sign, among other things, the mortgage agreement, and your DP check and the banks funds are delivered to the seller.6 - You get the property.

If you are well-qualified (in terms of DTI) and don't need the rental income to get approved for the loan, you are probably okay to move forward.
