I live in the Medical Centre area and had the water touching the bottom of my door.

Hi Quinton,This may or may not be applicable to you, but if by "unemployed" you mean "on temporary disability, but my job is waiting for me when I get better, and we have an estimated return to work date," than this would be a scenario where ADA trumps ATR and you can still get a traditional mortgage.Fannie guideline on long-term/permanent disability, on social security disability, and on what may be applicable to you: "temporary leave income," which includes short term medical disabilities.For that last one:Just like women/men on maternity/paternity/pregnant leave, a gap between temporarily reduced income due to medical condition, and your normal income, can be made up for using asset depletion.

There is a medical office unit for sale in my area.

I have a Medical Savings Account through my employment (it covers me and my wife).

I'm in healthcare administration and I'm also adjunct faculty at a medical school. 

Yeah you can spend $3K and get a new car or fix it, but can you afford the medical bills of the people who get devastated in the crash?

I'm medically retired now.  

Turkey investing is for Doctors and Dentists  who need a place to park money and build up equity over time.  

I am in a medical field for several years so doing real estate is something completely foreign to me but I like the thrill of doing something I haven't done before and I think this is something I see myself doing for a while.

The state is in a recession right now (though the medical/healthcare industry which you are in is doing great) so that means job loss and population decline.
