Looking for investor friendly agents and contractors in Texas

[Oscar Meneses]

I am an out of country investor.  This year I started doing fix and flips in the Midwest (Ohio and Michigan). I plan to continue investing there, but now I am also interested in building a team in Texas (I lived there for 5 years while attending college). I would love to connect with agents and general contractors that have plenty of experience working with investors.   I would like to focus on the Dallas and/or Houston suburbs initially.  Any tips on how to get started in the state and what to look for would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

To start investing in Texas, consider submarkets like Houston's The Woodlands, Sugar Land, Katy, and Pearland, and Dallas' Plano, Frisco, McKinney, and Garland. Build a local team with reliable GCs, subcontractors, and property managers. Consider a good title company for out-of-country transactions. Texas has lenders specializing in fix-and-flip loans or bridge loans. Keep an eye on market trends to protect investments against fluctuations. Contact a good agent for market comps and ARV estimates.

Good luck!
