Hello everyone,For quite some time I have been thinking about entering the real estate game, with a goal in mind, that I will be able to free up my time to spend it with my family, as well as work from home and be able to build my dream business with the help of real estate.An I think it is the right time for me to do so, here is why:My older daughter got in to college and we are relocating from CA to MA in September-November, she will study on campus at Amherst, but we want to get our first property after paying rent to someone for to long.My idea was to get a small multifamily, but clean environment like no landfills, no toxics, good water and air was a bigger priority for my family, so we are thinking to have a small, under 50-100k starter house that needs some work done, but has no exterior problems, has all the pipes and electric work in place.

Here's what i have to work with:My current CA home value = $600,000I only owe $222,000 on the houseI refi'd 6 months ago to get money to upgrade the house...central heating and air/ new kitchen/ landscaping/ New electrical panel and 200 Amp service. 

There are also devices that can analyze the air quality, but I only know of a company that works with hotels with contracts for multiple units.

However, if you are constantly buying appliances yearly and claiming that as a deduction on your taxes that could look very odd from a IRS point of view. 

Air conditioned, new paint, appliances etc.  

I’m enlisted in the US Air Force.

The market is stabilized by a couple points but the biggest being because of the Air Force base here.
