We are currently expecting our first child in less than a month so we are surely in for a life change very soon.  

Account Closed as long as both markets have good fundamentals, and you run the numbers (cap rates, rental comps, etc.) and the cashflow aligns with your criteria and goals, I would choose the market you are more comfortable with.

Ft value, the ability to comfortably lay heads, efficient and respectful layouts, updated maintenence, thoughtful finishes, and cleanliness.

@Landon WhittThat's comforting to hear.

Its when they start seeing large spans and beams that look a bit to close for comfort is when they start questioning things. 

@Jen PothilatSounds like your team has analyzed the deal and you are comfortable with it.  

Most of those teachers will have an analysis tool they'll take you through in depth so you get comfortable analyzing properties.

The 2nd option involves more risk (which I'm comfortable with).

Also, you need to determine how much cash flow you need every month to live comfortably.

Again more cash than cheques Both credit scores are above 750 and can comfortably save a combined 60k yearly to invest in our desired market (Central Florida).
