@Mark Small, you’re on target that standard VA home loans are intended to put military members and veterans into move-in ready homes that don’t require significant repairs.There is a separate loan product called the VA Renovation loan, which essentially packages a home purchase loan and a home improvement loan into a single product.  

I essentially meant taking out a construction loan but Im unfamiliar with there requirements.

Some people also install a soaker system that essentially keeps the soil moist.
