Quote from @Justin Brin: I created a heat map showing the population changes in each state over the past five years (2020–2024).The states experiencing the largest population increases are Florida, Texas, Utah, Arizona, and South Carolina.

As @Jonathan Greene mentioned this is kind of a dated strategy in the new price/interest rate environment.

Don't change jobs or income yet.Once you do and you think you can manage the payments based on your new income, maybe once you get the rooms rented.Then if you want to switch there are plenty of opportunities. 

I think about this often, its really just running the numbers - if you borrow 100k at an 8% interest rate, will the investment get you more than an 8% return?

I've heard Trump most signed an executive order to eliminate reduced rates for section 8.

Don't expect rates to come down. 

One deal can really change your life—let me know how I can bring value!

But SFH are already seeing renewals at 2%-4% and release rates up at least 5% YoY...that number is even higher on some luxury ($3k+/m rent) homes as those are harder to find.The rest is entirely speculative.

You also need to change all contact information to you - all email, phone, address. 

Rates are high, usually in the high 8s or low 9s, and you may pay 2-4 points on the loan.
