Occupancy by Veteran’s Spouse or Dependent Child Occupancy (or intent to occupy) by the spouse or dependent child satisfies the occupancy requirement for a veteran who is on active duty and cannot personally occupy the dwelling within a reasonable time.

Definitely don't house-hack in an area you don't feel comfortable in. 

I'm just not sure I'd feel comfortable using this particular law office again -- wanting to figure out what my options are in the future.

They only provided 1 of 3 keys as lease states they had, 2 fist size holes in the walls, which the tenant actually emailed me about and apologized, along with a door they tried to put back on the hinges to their bedroom but was broken by their child in doing so which they also emailed me about and apologized. 

You could also suggest your tenants call child protective services if there is no supervision for young children and call the police for late night noise disturbances.

@Ryan Pettengilldon't use HM or PM on your first deal.save up enough until you can comfortably house hack.

There is no magical door that a child walks through when they turn 18 that suddenly teaches them responsibility.

If a child predator wanted to live in an apartment complex, I would automatically deny.
