We just had our first born child!

A tenant going through a child custody battle tried to frame the ex by setting the house on fire. 

Almost makes me want to have another child.

Teaching your child the ropes and getting him/her involved in their first RE deal is the best education you can possibly give them.

I finally was able to schedule it and i did it when our newest child was 4 weeks old.

You have a young wife and child coming. 

Get your leads in right and wholesaling is child's play! 

You know, a house is a coutable asset, and Medicaid would require that it be used when a spouse or an adult child is no longer living there.  

Even with that though, I wasn't persistent enough, hence why I'm here now without a rental.11 weeks ago my fiancee gave birth to our first child, and I was ecstatic.

(Des Moines is an area on my radar)   for example https://www.redfin.com/WA/Des-Moines/403-S-192nd-St-98148/home/338852  has been on the market a while so a semi-aggressive offer would not be an unrealistic move, though its probably on the "habitable fixer" end of things and I understand that with a child in school you may be a lot more selective about location,  neighborhood area etc.
