Especially at your age you have time.Thanks for the heads up!

I didn’t know about Detroit’s down payment assistance program, so I really appreciate the heads-up and the link.

If you don't believe me, head over to the BP rental calculator, plug in a $1 million property with very average appreciation and see what happens over 30 years.Instead, look at buying or starting a business.

@Basit Siddiqi hit the nail on the head.

Also jobs that can get me a head start into the field and what kind of investment I should really start with.

We have 15 rentals here and non of them have zombies or meth heads.

Not trying to fight with my daughter about it.. however I have a son headed to Miss State, and I intend to do what you have done.Curious.. at what age can someone buy a house?

If I could go back to my younger self, I would have told him to "get your head out of the spreadsheet, everything is going to be okay, and buy a nice place in a nice area". 

There used to be one, but normally people post questions in the larger groups and simply add the location (usually Canada or the province) to the heading.

Headed into a new market and loving learning the way things go.
