That’s awesome. I’m looking to get into partnerships for multi family’s as well.

There seems to be a lot of activity in these areas in regards to new construction. For anyone with knowledge on these areas; what’s your 2–4 year forecast on prices and appreciation? I’m seeing a lot of people in the San Diego area choose to make the long commute for more comfortable living.

Generally speaking, do upgrades such as kitchen remodeling, flooring, and bathroom remodeling cause the same forced appreciation as single family homes or similar properties?

Thank you to everyone for your replies and insight to this market!!! Can’t reply to everyone individually but definitely taking everyone’s word into account!

@Jerry Padilla Thanks for the info! I'm quickly finding out there's a lot of things I didn't know about the VA loan.

@Donald E Appleberry I’ll reach out to you for sure

My current apartment offered me a new lease for 2,032 and I'm having trouble coming to terms with paying this amount for rent. My income after deductions is 70k and my wife's annual income is a little over 50k. We both are mid 20's and have no debt or kids. My idea in this market would be to buy and sell once we leave or possibly buy and rent (using a agent we personally know to manage the property once we leave). I would probably use the VA loan although we could front about 60k for a down payment if it makes more sense. My other idea would be to continue renting and look to start getting into either turnkeys or general investing out of state. This obviously is a personal decision, but please let me know if there's something I'm missing or forgetting. Thanks a lot.
