Looking for investor friendly agents and contractors in Texas

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!

@Oscar Meneses

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!

    @Oscar Meneses I would love to connect. I operate a general contracting company focused solely on investor rehabs, and we are based out of Houston with operations in Dallas. Please feel free to reach out.

    We have active off-market leads for flips in the North Houston market. Getting ready to assign a contract shortly. Let's keep in touch. I can add you to my list for future deals if you want.

    @Oscar Meneses I'm in Dallas area and happy to discuss your needs in the great DFW area.  It can be pretty tough to find the right fix and flips, but we come across some.  I am agent/broker associate and investor as well and work with many investors.
