He is now 5 and will be starting kindergarten in the district in the fall so that's a huge incentive for us to stay and continue to rebuild financially.

I personally feel like there’s a lot of opportunity for that in the Frisco /Little Elm/Plano/Colony area.I want to obtain financial freedom by obtaining property to buy and hold and rent out to section 8, eventually.

@Roy Gottesdiener i think you should seek a legal and financial advice to ask a about your situation and start from there.

If you’re making $70k and have the self-awareness to understand where you are financially and where you want to be - you’re better off than many with just pipe dreams.

I’ve save 13yrs of payments and over 19k in Just interest alone using discipline and strategy financially like this.))And now I’d GO get the house hack strategy!

Hi I’m new to BiggerPockets for the last two years I’ve been very interested in owning property. after doing some research and stumbling onto BiggerPockets I have gathered a little more information. Starting is usuall...

If I were in your shoes, I would probably look to house hack, as that is the cheapest and easiest way to make two quick steps towards financial freedom. 

I have sold houses and have friends that have bought houses and I know their financials.

As for what type of properties you want to look for.. cashflow is King, especially given your financial situation.I honestly wouldn't look into investing long distance with your minimal income and minimal cash in hand.

Ignoring personal time involved, strictly financially, you're wrong about efficiency.
