and Thank YOU for your service to our country.

We have some savings and it seems our goal might be reasonable in another part of the country but we're in the discovery process in learning if this is remotely realistic in a nearby area.

After carefully considering my goals andd reams for the next few ears, and investigating a lot f potential opportunites, I decided to sopend my resources and time on Real Estate investing, and turn up the heat, to enable myself and my wife to move to warmer cclimates of the country inwithin 2 years.

I went to an open house last weekend to find a 2bd 1 ba SFR at a ridiculous $345,000.Gud gracious.Scratching my head, standing on the sidelines, and clicking my golden slippers for better days,TevisI'd start clicking your heels in a different area of the country.

The beauty of wholesaing lease options is you can work with properties with equity, little, no or negative equity and you can do them anywhere in the country (except Texas) as long as you have a phone and access to the internet.

Deal through a broker.Otherwise, if you have the capital available to set up a staff, locate finance people in various areas of the country and hire them to do your due diligence. :)

HUD's rents only show you what the maximum amount is they will pay, for each area, and they are broken down by each area of the country.

It can be a safer route for someone that is out of the country.
