Hi Marcus,With a solid financial base of a $135k/year dual income, a 3-month emergency fund, and $15k in savings, your plan to invest in a property while stationed at NAS Pensacola sounds promising.

If you can't then term loan will give you better deal and will report as installment loan vs revolving line of credit on your personal credit report which is much better for you scores.

There may be a few neighborhoods you could identify based on price and type of home and then talk with a RE agent about getting information on those areas. 

I travel frequently but would use it as my home base when I'm in town.I found this property about an hour north of Austin: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/17710-Fawnridge-Cir-Leand...It has views of the lake and AirDna rates Leander, TX where it's located with a 62 market score.

As a CA resident, you may wish to find a CPA based in CA or at least very knowledgeable about CA taxes since CA can be a bit more complicated than other states. 

It looks like based off of the location you're talking about a brand new construction home and there are certainly some advantages to that.

It's a manual process (and a bit slow as there is no copy and paste type feature I could find) but it's only once and you're good to go.So here's the login page... like I said, a nice visual interface as you'd expect from a web based app.You can scroll down a bit for more on how you're doing this year and compared to the previous year...Here's how I set things up...So to set things up... go to the accounting tab on the right (the +/- Box)... and click "Add Account in the top right...

I think we need to inform the neighbor that they need to disconnect from our line and install their own separate line to the City's main sewer.
