One of my quads has a 31-year tenant and a 25-year tenant, I think they are going to live there the rest of their life, they are under rent control. 3.

They'll call it a solid "B" area when it's a "C-" area; they'll say it has great space for the price, but the rooms are all chopped up and not very usable; they'll say it has great amenities, but those amenities are a 30 year old dishwasher and a central hvac system that groans and clanks when it turns on.

Like Chris said most people are attracted to the idea of getting rich quick without a lot of work but especially when you're starting out there is a lot to learn and a lot to do.

This is great detail and a lot of the reasons I like the thought of renting by a military base!

I need a local architect to draw up plans and a GC who is experienced with these types of loans. 

I have a letter of commitment for purchase of the existing house at 130k and a national builder that's wants the five remaining lots at 33k each.

So glad you've rediscovered Bigger Pockets early in your real estate investing journey...sounds like you've got great experience AND a solid plan for your future.

It sounds like you have a good start to investing, with a house hack and a multi family under your belt already!

FYI, I went into Accounting and as I've ventured down the REI path that financial & business background has been invaluable. 

You'll likely only need to submit an income statement and a balance sheet.
