I plan on being at the next one Colby.  Thanks for sharing.

@Stephen VanMeter it would be and it was a steal back in 2012 because the military was paying double my mortgage for housing allowance.  I guess we can say "those were the good ole days."

@Sam Wilson I did not buy with the intent to rent after moving. I  just wanted to buy a house.  I was not even sure if it was going to rent after moving because everyone I knew was selling their house prior to moving so I took a risk and man it has been paying off since then.
