Kid in college and one starting to drive   blah blah blah.I'm sure there are numerous places to cut money for sure. 

Hey George, congratulations on starting your real estate journey! 

Ah yes, I own property in Tulsa but actually also have a real estate automation company with nationwide coverage - I started adding markets to the list to illustrate the range of areas we cover but should definitely add Tulsa to the list as well!

Quote from @Greg Gallucci: I'm starting to look into the Huntsville market.

From there you can start to identify what you are looking for.Where do you land on the follow spectrums:Cash flow and AppreciationLong term or Short term needs (waiting for growth vs get out of my W2 now)Long term rentals, Mid term rentals, Short term rentalsBuying close to home or coast to coastSelf manage or hire a PMIf you can narrow in on those, you essentially have your buy box. 

I plan on starting out next year with a small plug and play solution to have minimum risk.
