Hey fellow investors,

Anyone outside of Texas investing in Houston? I know it's one of the hottest markets - what are the pros and cons of investing there?

Thanks!

Hey Shu, 

Great questions, I have been investing in Houston for about 10 years.  Let's connect and you can see my numbers under my profile.  

For pros - 1% rule can be achieved / labor costs are reasonable / rental market is strong 

For cons -  increasing property tax and insurance cost
