First Home Question/Decision!

[Brandon Monaghan]

Hey Everyone!

- I am 24 years old

- I make around 80k a year (no kids)

- I have about 20k cash that I can invest right now

I am currently living in DT Denver and I am paying rent. I want more than anything to have a tiny house in the mountains. However it would be more of a vacation place or weekend home. I work in Denver so I don't want to have to commute everyday if I lived in the tiny house full time. Also, I plan on moving to San Diego area in a year from now, but I will still take plenty of trips back to the mountains (my fiancé is a flight attendant so flying is no expense) So, my questions...

1. Is it smarter for me to buy a home that I permanently live in before getting a tiny home for vacation?

2. Would it be very expensive to buy a small plot of land and build a tiny home outside of San Diego?

3. Should I look to get a house in Denver and when I move rent it out since Denver is just booming? Then when I get to CA do a tiny home?

Any recommendations, suggestions etc please fire away!
