When should I invest?

[Ryan Giblin]

Hello BP Community,

I just turned 24 years old and got my first "big boy" job with a defense contractor. I am eager to begin investing in real estate but I'm not sure what the right timing should be.

I got into a leadership program in which I will spend 8 months in three completely different locations (Boston, LA, Tucson).

Would you recommend holding off investing until I find a permanent location or just jump into something if I find a deal in my current city?

Thanks in advance for your comments!
