Thank you everybody for taking the time to respond with well thought out replies. Once again, GREAT community here!
@Liam Goble That is inspiring that you both started young and are successful, i will greatly take that into consideration thank you for that.
@Andy Robison Hey i appreciate you actually talking to someone about living outside the barracks. I mean technically i could, but it would have to be almost a perfect situation as in location and the complex type. Also food and gas would need to be considered as well. But anything could happen i think its best to look at all possible senerios and put the best one together. Thanks man.
@Account Closed Your right about credit. I never had a credit card, always paid in cash. So i will definently be looking to build my credit this year, and may have to use money of my own as any downpayment. I have a good starting stack of about $15k-$20k.
@Rick H. My mother had a father named george who died when she was little, but I always thought he lived in a different state. So possibly. And i will definently start investing more in education. And i understand what you're saying about not being able to grow if friends have nothing to grow on. I plan on going to seminars to possibly meet a whole new line of people, who hopefully have some great expirience. One thing i can bring to the table is interior wiring. My MOS is an electrician, so that is defininently should help me out in real estate.
@Edwin E.
Rah! Are you currently deployed? Yes he is a Cpt, and is very passionate about real estate investing. He has taught me a lot and inspired me just as much to get an education in REI. As for making a timeline for myself.. Great idea! I will get to that! I thank you for the motivation and advice you bring through text.
