My plan has been to get a tenant in first in order to show the bank that the house is cash flowing consistently.

The crime rate began to rise and eventually the town pretty much consisted of only low income families.

Consistency is the second part of it. 

We have 3 in our office that are doing this consistently month after month.

The way I see it I have two options:Option 1: Buy and Hold My Parent's Up-to-Date Condo (5 Year Residence)My parents own few residential properties consisting of condos, apartments and town homes and are looking to sell.

That type of commitment eats up a lot of time from your business as a successful investor.I do not know anything positive or negative about this company although they frequently come up as a topic on here.I would say that it is easier for an investor sell a book/system/information  on doing grand slam deals then to consistently find them over and over  again.

That being said, if there is someone else who is depending on your consistency (if only a weekly update call) you will be more eager to not disappoint. 

As I do my time in the military I will be consistently working on educating myself and practicing Real Estate Entrepreneurship.

We're seeing consistent economic growth throughout the metro area and that's helping to bolster owner-occupied prices as well as a strong rental market.

Finding reliable and consistent buyers is a work in progress.
