Hi all 👋
I'm looking to purchase my very first investment property in Maricopa County, AZ. Despite living on the East Coast, I did Rental Arbitrage in Tempe, AZ virtually. I visited Arizona for the 1st time back in J...

This training will be 6 months long until I move again which is why I figured I would ask the question here.Should I look at buying a house in Newport, RI to basically Live-in/rent while I am in training to then turn it into a rental property once I move on to my next duty station or should I just wait until I get to my duty station after schooling? 

Also, if you are active in the market out there I would like to meet up for coffee or lunch or something if we are unable to meet at a meeting I am interested in that as well.So far my schedule looks like this:Jan 25th - Fly in see the family and get situatedJan 26th - Meeting with new lender and new broker (no exact times set yet)Jan 27th - Attending AREA Real Estate School in Waltham from 9am to 7pmJan 28th - Attending AREA Real Estate School in Waltham from 9am to 7pm and I will be rushing over last minute to try to catch the end of the Black Diamond Group's meet up which starts at 6pm (I am hoping I can get out of class a little early this day.)Jan 29th - Attending AREA Real Estate School in Waltham from 9am to 7pmJan 30th - Attending AREA Real Estate School in Waltham from 9am to 7pmJan 31st - Taking the MA Real Estate Broker Test at 12pm...Also, I might catch a train from Providence, RI to NY with my cousin for the super bowl from (Jan 31st to Feb 3rd).

I got it under contract contingent on Rhode Island renewal program and 3.5% FHA.Price 169,000Offer. 157,250 (3,000 back for closing)downpayment (20,000) Rhode Island renewal plan.Total mortgage. 137,250 So long story short, I pay 2,000 in closing costs - and get the state of RI to give me 20,000 on a downpayment.

kudos @Rito Altamirano for taking action steps, not a pro but this looks like a potential solution, a win-win for both parties involved, all the best

They call me back and say I never expected that soon can we pay it over time with the rent and that is illegal in RI to ask for that much upfront (it isn't  I know exactly what I can do).
