What should be my next move?

Posted

I’m currently a Registered nurse and in the next three years I plan on going to medical school.

I have saved up $20k and have then been thinking about getting a duplex instead of renting.

I can put down $10k and save the rest for anything that comes up like vacancies, repairs etc

When I go to Med school my goal is to rent it out, if I go out of state or still live in it if I go to the med school near me.

It’s in a great place and can easily rent.

I don’t have any plans of paying it off early, I’m going to take a 15 year or 30 year mortgage and pay it off that way, so I don’t direct all my income into paying the house off early.

At the same time, my other self is telling me to save up all my money for medical school and less loans.

What do u guys think, should I buy the house or not.
