@James Barnes thanks now my biggest step is to find deals to put some offers in on. I really want to look into MF because while I'm away my mortgage is being paid and if I did a small MF unit and by the time I come back I can refi out if it. IF I did an FHA or VA on an SF ill have to make the payments. It's so many ways to go so I'll eventually get there.

Catalino Rodriguez yea from what I have seen so far only places to find the MF are the Baltimore area, Hagerstown then some of the small western towns in MD. I’m really looking into maybe checking out some other states and their MF. That’s nice that you have already got your pre approval out the way. The great thing about my job is I get to go away for a year and that why I want to get a property with FHA or VA while I’m away for the year then by the time I come back I can refi hopefully out of the property into another fha or va back loan.

@Malcolm Lawson I would to love to get together and chat once I return home. I see properties in St marys all the times my problem is I dont know the baseline there to even know whats a good deal or what I should even offer if I think its a good deal. I been thinking waldorf and the la plata area because of DC and Andrews. I plan on going out 2-3 more times to continue saving more. One of the main reason I wanted to find multifamily was use FHA or VA loan while im away and have someone paying my mortgage down for the year while im gone then refi out after a year and do it one more time before i move back home for good then have captial to start buying with 20% down.

@Paul Choi thanks for the advice, just kept reading so much about market so high and didnt want to make a rookie mistake by coming into the market at its peak and next thing you know the market corrects and I scew myself. From all the advice im recieving i'll start doing my research to jump in once I get back.

@Malcolm Lawson when I first wanted to get into investing I wanted to go the SFR route but I love the idea of how MFR work with the more people under one roof. I love your idea and the way you explain getting the @ houses with the VA loan and I would love to explore that route as well. I to live in Southern md just a little more south than you in Calvert county Lusby. Would love to maybe meet up for lunch or coffee once im back if you have some free time. Thanks again for your ideas and replying back.

@Stephanie P. thats a great and creatative idea thank you very much for giving me a way to look at things. My idea was to look at going the FHA route. My plan was to be a owner operator for a year while im gone overseas then once i get back refi out and buy another one.
