I have actually been here before as a diff user but i deleted the mail account so had to creat a new account. OOPS haha

anyways from nor cal bay area.

recently divorced single father. I have been working very hard to rebuild my credit ( I assumed all the dept from the divorce) and have made some investments since the money pit was filled in that hopefully will allow me to pay off everything - my student loans in the next few months.

question. My (soon to be fiance and I) are looking at homes in bay area. We want to buy a house togehter or will very soon. Im a lil intimidated about the price of homes in san jose. I want to get into home ownership again (sold condo before divorce)

I am trying to develop a plan we can stick to. We both want to start investing and building wealth Is buying the home together the first priority and going from there? or should we be looking at buying rental property or investment properites that we can purchase renovate resell on profit?
