Nothing can cash flow and appreciation doesn't seem to be high?
Hey everybody.
Im in the San Marcos are of Texas. Every deal that I run the numbers on for SFH just doesn't end up cash flowing and doesn't come close to the 50% rule. I would like to house hack but multi family is rare here due to restrictions put on homes in the area and their are currently none available.
If anyone has experience with a similar situation please comment and let me know what you did! Thanks!

Cody.
I experienced a very similar situation in CA and decided to invest out of state where you can beat the 1% rent to value ratio rule and cash flow all day long.
