Buy a house in smalltown if I’m moving in 4 years to big city?

[Jean Pierre Jabo]

Hi guys,

New to the RE world and aspiring to start investing. I currently live in a small town in rural Colorado, renting an apartment for $575 a month and I’m working in the town for 4 years. After that, Hopefully I plan on moving to the bigger cities in CO which are very expensive!

My question is, should I buy a house here if I know I’ll move in the coming years or should I save and continue renting and then buy later. I’m looking at a great way to start into the RE world. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. :)
