House is in Desert Hot Springs, CA.

Desmond Alexander I haven't heard of FHA zero down but it sounds like some are advertising similar things in CA. http://www.desertsun.com/story/money/real-estate/2017/09/08/get-house-no-down-payment-one-desert-lender-says-its-possible/594674001/Basically they are combining FHA with those local downpayment assistance grants .I think those grants are usually for first time home buyers.Personally I don't know if people have zero down and no money getting into a house is a good idea .

Either you aren't doing many deals or you are acquiring property in a very undesirable area (country, desert, swamp land). 

Hello BiggerPocketeers...I am seeking information on investing in a property in Desert Hot Springs, California.

Also, what was the quality of the on base housing compared to off base.As far as the destinations you mentioned, I know there are definitely opportunities in Oceanside, CA near Camp Pendleton and Desert Hot Springs and Cathedral City near 29 Palms.

. ;-) Oddly enough, there are a bunch of ice skating rinks and ice hockey here in the desert.
