Deployed and looking to buy a HUD house

[Andrew Olson]

I am currently deployed and have been looking at buying a house to move into when I get back. I should be able to live in the house I buy for at least 2 more years. I have been in the market for a while and found a house that I think would be great. It's a HUD house that will need the floors finished and appliances from what I can tell from zillow, trulia, and the info from the realtor. It is listed for 80k in a neighborhood or houses ranging from120 - 180k. They also dropped the price recently from 91k. Am I wrong to feel this is an opertunity forme and if it is how do I not miss out on it since I wouldn't be able to look at the house for 2 months?
