That's not to say there isn't a win-win to be had for both sides of the deal but it's best to go in with your eyes wide open: investors who can quality to finance conventionally are choosing the pass on the deal at the current price.

I would highly recommend real estate investment if after 3/6/9 yrs you want out of the Guard you will be very stable.Keep in mind if they sign you for a bonus or education benefits you must uphold your obligation.If you at any time leave or get thrown out the money they give you they take back aka IRS they get their money one way or another lol I've seen it first hand with one of my soldiers they take it without warning. 

Now we're looking to find some deals in our backyard.There's a wide variety of directions to take here.  

And (like doing 'terms deals' in general...) that is a nearly wide open niche for those who can hire, 1099, or JV with people like the guy Joe Crump's person interviewed on YouTube I recently linked in the article I just linked above, "Lead Generation by Door Knocking," here on BP.
