For more affordable properties—those priced under $400,000—the timeline is even shorter, with many homes receiving offers within two weeks of being listed.This fast-moving market poses a particular challenge for first-time buyers who may not be as familiar with the urgency required in competitive bidding situations.

We live in Wisconsin so it will be a hike but we plan to move to where we are starting to invest.

Or should I invest regardless of student loans if my hope is to use FHA loan for smaller downpayment and then eventually rent the house out in a few years once I move?

It's one of the hottest markets in the US right now with so much population growth, job growth, and companies moving/developing here (26B Intel headquarters being built here, 68K+ enrollment in Ohio State University, Amazon, FB, Google, Honda, Nationwide, Anduril, etc.).

I'm making some pretty big moves right now and changing my business plan in a new direction, so I don't want to die of shiny object syndrome, but this method really speaks to me.

Real Estate, Wellness, and Community ImpactAs I move into 2025, I’m focused on deepening my faith and prioritizing wellness, mental health, self-control, and discipline.

I am trying to hire a licensed REA for my LLC to perform occasional open houses and move-in/move-out inspections since I am out-of state from my rental property.I have the REA identified, now I just need to know the steps to creating a contract for them and me to sign.

I made a few deals in North Dallas.Special assessments and HOA fees are a risk and renting out a condo most likely won't generate much of a cash flow.At $300k with you credit and saving you can still qualified for a loan for sure we have to find the program that works for you.On that budget you could find a nice place no that far from work so you don't have to move far to the suburbs. 

Good morning @Joshua MartinGreat thing about a VA mortgage is you can do an IRRRL even after you have moved out of the property!

Quote from @Austin Brummett: I wouldn't do anything right now except continue to save and learn, because you are likely moving soon.Lenders usually want to see two years of employment history, so you won't qualify for a loan any time soon.
