There are caps on income, assistance amount, and restrictions on being a first time home buyer.

However, Even in the most competitive (Sedona) STR market, only 5% of home owners use the formula that gives huge occupancy and prime market ADR, resulting in a strong ROI.

I inherited a lot that had a 2009 single wide mobile home on it in 2018. 

For those that chose to buy a home at a duty station they then have to decide to sell when they are transferred or hold on to the property.

Looking for a single family homes or multi-family duplex. also which areas would you invest if not the ones I mentioned above. landlord friendly states is a must for me.

Quote from @Linda Barbano: This is what they do when they steal homes from good people.

Purchase price: $438,000 Cash invested: $72,500 Sale price: $655,500 Single family home rehab and resale.

Does anybody have any insight on there current margins for starter home specs? 

Think A-frames and chalets over the regular ranch stye homes.

If you see a $220k listing for a duplex where each rent is $1000/month you see immediately that this deal is CLOSE TO 1% and that with negotiation or other improvements in rent or savings in expenses could meet or exceed that.
