Instead of dunkin donuts I get the gas station coffee, instead of ordering out I try to see what I have at home, and any purchase decision I have to make is made knowing that I'm saving for a down payment and how bad I want to get into this game.

It has a train station, university.Kevin, do you take your loans directly from a bank or through a mortgage broker?

@Brandon Guite I have been curious about Rapid City as well because my son is stationed there.

I'm currently just beginning my shore command but have been stationed here for the last 5 years.

Have a train station that is less than 2 minutes walk from the property.

Im AD military and got stationed here over 3 years ago where Ive built a +$1M portfolio through annual live in buys.

Vallejo is an excellent area....I went to high school in Fairfield and when I was in the Navy one of the places I was stationed was Mare Island.

I'm currently Serving in the the navy and I currently have one house hack in Florida where I am stationed.

This property is less than two blocks away from the BART station, which is not only going to add something like 100-150K to the bottom line of the property, but in addition, because we were so close to public transportation, we got to completely skip plan review (1-4 months) to add an extra unit at the back of the house!

It's one block away from the train station and bus stop to work.
