Buying home out of college

[Riku Kiyokawa]

Hi all,

I will be graduating from college soon and am thinking about buying a home as a primary residence/investment instead of renting. I plan on renting out the extra rooms. 

What are some of the pros and cons of buying a house out of college?

Some forums recommend waiting to buy a house until settled mid-career, but why not start early?

If a career opportunity pops up in a different location, will having a home make it difficult to relocate? Can't I just hold onto the property and collect rent income?

What are your guy's thoughts?
