Bigger Pockets, my wife and I will be moving to the Tacoma/Lacey/Olympia area in the fall and we are in need of a realtor in the area to help us find a primary home. I will be stationed at Ft. Lewis.

Please if any members are agents or have agents you highly recommend please contact me with the information.

As always thanks again BP nation!

~John

    Hello all, I've also gotten an assingment to McChord AFB this summer. I'm single and in my early 30s so I'm looking to house hack by buying a 2-4plex/MFR in a "hip" neighborhood where the younger population tends to live. Do you know in what areas I'd want to start looking?

    Thanks in advance! 

     Hi Frank, 

    I would say for the most part, the areas that are "hip" are not the same as the areas that have 2-4 plexs. The more fun areas for you would probably be in Tacoma, and those neighborhoods are pricey. Finding a home with an unfinished basement you can rent out, or a garage that you can convert into a living space may be a better way to go...or a home with a lot of bedrooms that you can rent out. Have you already been pre-approved, and if so, what is your budget?
