I am currently serving in the Army, and am working on my first few deals in the local area.In the long run I am looking to settle down and invest full time in either Chattanooga, TN, or the South Tampa, FL area near my family.

Originally from Indianapolis , Indiana and landed here in Baltimore, Maryland by way of the US Army!

I'm very new at this as well and wont be able to start learning my market very well till i get home in 8 months, I currentyl serve in the army.

The risks with an ARM is when you max out your qualifying and use an ARM to qualify for for even more house.  

My name is Rob and I am a helicopter pilot currently stationed at Hunter Army Airfield in Savannah.

Hi Mitchele, I'm also new in real estate investing and would love to work with you on finding deals. 7 years US ARMY, out in 2006.

Gary an ARM is an "adjustable rate mortgage" to which many call them ticking time bombs.Buyers often try to get the lowest debt possible for maximum cash flow in the beginning but do not think about the worst case outcomes and exit strategies on the back end.

I'm currently located in Orange County after devoting 10 years to being in the Army.

BS in Healthcare Administration, ROTC followed by 6 years in Army.

Once I am out of the Army I think our savings rate will go up quite a bit, because I will have more flexibility in being able to live close to work, and may be able to get rid of a car and choose a more profitable home (like a fourplex).Anyways, I think that by combining Mustachian living with the potential profits available with smart real estate investing, financial independence can be had very quickly.
