Just needed for some tips on saving and managing money better .  

Quote from @Zachary Deal: Choose neutral safe tones and get nice materials but don't splurge too much on very fancy cabinets, counters, appliances that someone else may not value the same as you.This is so true.

High credit scores and low DTI are often required…and these take much longer than I first thought…Navy might take 45 days to get through the gauntlet.  

Is it doable - yes but you will need to go to a lender who probably uses their own funds vs. an instituational lender as they will not like 2nd position nor the low amount.

But if your PITI is $105k, then not so much.

Anyone can live anywhere they want if they have the money, and sometimes houses are bought and then rented out without much background checking on the people moving in.

Anywhere in between, I think it's deflationary because consumer won't continue to eat it & supply side is still long enough to not warrant new supply at tariff related prices.We really need to see how long this lasts.  

Hi David learn what you need here on BP.  

If you are hiring a PM, then it's not a big difference either way, but if self-managing you don't want to go much bigger than you have been or you may not be able to do all the work.

If I'm ever in need of a broker in the DE markets, I will reach out.
