To create the ability to full retire when I leave the military at the age of 43.

You want a surgeon that specializes in the kind of surgery you need, not a general practitioner.

I'm currently with the military and living in Virginia. 

@Graham Allen Find a niche that you like (ex. single family residence, near a military base, or a STR in a vacation place or near a large hospital system?) 

Are you wanting to attract military tenants? 

Since when to tenants deserve something special like discounts? 

I know that some people with long term special needs family members like a sink in the bedroom. 

If the association was good, they would have that cash on hand to cover the expense, but a lot of them don’t, so you would get a demand called a special assessment for $10,000 to cover your share.

FHA is a special program to help people accomplish the home ownership.

And example, I was selling a house and a buyer found out that I had 2 special needs children.
