I agree. Most of the high earning young people I hang with basically have to be willing to uproot for opportunity.

However, owning a house (I think the term home is something distinctly different) could be used to facilitate moves though. I don't have to be in the same state/country as my rental property (though countries are starting to crack down on foreign rental property ownership).

Is property management cheap in your area? We rent a couple of apartments, and hiring a property management company would be ruinous, unless both the rent and our personal time was very expensive.

I would pick a rental area which has a college (or colleges) or with a large rental market. In my experience, the presence of a student rental market keeps prices down for property management, but high enough to make rentals viable. However, each person's situation is different.
