I think diversity is great in a portfolio but so is scaling the area you are currently doing well in.

All of the multifamily I have looked at in my area are not profitable due to prices being much higher than rent currently.

However, the problem is that I currently live in Northern Ireland and will go to university either at the University of Edinburg, in Scotland the London School of Economics to study economics and politics.

All of my family is from Pittsburgh and I’m currently in Virginia Beach.

The vehicle is over 6000 pounds GVWR and will be used nearly entirely for business (going to current rental and searching for new properties to acquire)."

This could save you money in the long run, but requires a bigger initial investment.To help you decide, consider these:What's your current budget?

@Jordan Kaylor   In that case, you would be using what is called "delayed financing" which just means you will be financing the property after you already own it (as long as it done before 6 months after closing) and if there is not current financing on the property.

HI BP,I am currently looking at buying a single family rental property that is currently rented.

You are "borrowing" the money and using your current home as collateral.

The average 1st time homebuyer is 37 currently.
