I'm Expanding To Texas & Looking For Advice And Real Estate Professionals To Connect

Hey Guys,

I'm an investor from Canada. I've done over 150 single family deals, am expanding to South West Florida for AirBnb's/flips but want to expand to Texas for long term single family holds. I've heard great things about Fort Worth and Austin areas, but looking for advice from people with boots on the ground.

I'm also looking for economic data that I can share with my partners like GDP growth, job growth, population growth etc so I can put data behind my decision on where to invest.

Thanks so much and looking to connect with you!

@Mat Piche thanks for posting.  Texas has been great for many years but I think the secret is out now.  Lots of great things about this part of the state.  

If you need raw data for us I would suggest connecting with the Real Estate Research Center at Texas A&M.  They are the leader for real estate data in our state.  They have TONS of information and have newsletters, magazines, and even have meetings from time to time that you can attend online.  You can visit their website here: https://www.recenter.tamu.edu/

If you want to plug into some realtors here that can talk about Fort Worth and surrounding towns I would suggest @Joe Funari and @John Steffen.

If you need anything else feel free to post.  Thanks!
