North Texas newbie to BP Forum posting!
*Cross posted on the Market trend/data forum*
Hi everyone! I am Dylan from Fort Worth TX. Been lurking around the forum a bit. I am at the tipping point of really dialing down to purchase my first investment property before the end of 2023 (Hopefully sooner). I am hoping to connect with someone that knows Fort Worth inside out (growth trend, specific zones and regulation to pay attention to, etc).
Here's my investment criteria and preferred strategy:
1. Under $350k for somewhat turn-key on the market deals, or $200k BRRRR deals.
2. For MTR or LTR
3. Able to beat at least 0.8% Rent-to-Purchase ratio
4. Zip codes with the most growth potential.
I am also very interested in properties that can be turned into student housing (TCU, UNT, etc).
So if you are a investor friendly agent that also has an investment portfolio yourself, investment-friendly lenders (that knows all the most up-to-date strategies for investment loan types), and contractors, I would love to connect with you! Thank you in advance!

@Dylan Lin you need to talk to @Joe Funari
Joe is a top agent the specializes finding rental properties for investors. He owns a nice portfolio of rentals himself.
FYI, not all student houses is the same...I personally do not like messing with college student houses. Many reasons, but turn over frequency is high on the list.
