I am in the military (20 years +) (World's Greatest Navy).

I'm in a career field where I am likely to have multiple NCR assignments, and have many friends and colleagues there, so I should have some advantages finding quality tenants (possibly myself if I catch another assignment in the area).Budget: I'd prefer to keep it to a no down payment VA loan, which caps me around $680K, but I could put some additional down if i find a particularly good deal.Area: I'm targeting a SFM home  or townhouse in Arlington, Alexandria, or Falls Church (short commute to Pentagon and FT Belvoir), which I can rent easily to upper end military families or local professionals.

Good Afternoon everyone,I will be PCSing to MD this fall and I will be working at Camp David and the D.C. area. I am looking at the Frederick area because it is in between the two. I've been researching the market the...

Military veteran looking to do my first deal,  network with wholesalers, agents, jv etc.!! 

For example, I just put a 5 unit complex under contract that brings in $850 in rent per unit, my renter base is strong and reliable, I can count on the University, Military Base, and Oil works to bring home the bacon (Always willing to assign it).

As a military family, we’ve rented for a good chunk of the past 23 years, but I’ve never encountered something like this before nor have we ever lost a dime of previous deposits.

Once again start talking to a realtor ahead of time to open your options up and start to get an idea of the market.I highly suggest you look for a realtor with the Military Relocation Professional (MRP) designation because they have taken extra courses to learn more about service members and more importantly the VA loan.
