For me good job availability and affordable housing had to intersect. 

Definitely don't quit your full time job to go into this.

I have a job as an engineer make a good salary.

If you were to have $100k in cash on hand, a W-2 I come from your Ft job of $100k/year, and have $0 debt..

I got married, got a new job and moved cities.

My plan was to move to Nashville in Septembber to still work this job full-time but go head on into the program by Tom and Cody.

For leasing we'd give first month's rent with a MAX "once per year" per unit and a 50% refund if we had to evict for any reason, or there was any unreimburseable damage or other fees (i.e. if she doesn't do a good job placing a tenant, it costs her!)

The catch is, I just signed a 12 month lease in the Milwaukee area because I was relocated for my job.

I graduated from the University of North Texas (UNT) in May 2018 with a BBA in Finance, and I started my first full-time job as a commercial credit analyst in June.
