Buying / Renting while on Comission
Hello Everyone! Quick background, I am 21, live north of Seattle, am getting married this summer, and am currently doing software sales! I have been into real estate and wanting to invest / buy for 2-3 years now. I have been working sales for about 6 months now, and cannot count my commission towards a mortgage for 2 years. I hate to rent once we get married (Currently live at home), but am unable to qualify for a mortgage. I have looked into buying land and living in an RV, or tiny home like home. I hate the idea of paying someone else' mortgage. Im looking for advice on what to do. It would only be a year or so of renting but still would like to get in as soon as possible and would love to hear anyone else' ideas! The goal is to buy a duplex or larger once i can qualify, and house hack. Any suggestions on what i could do NOW?
