Investing in Arkansas and Texas

[Carlette Brown]

Hello BiggerPockets members! My name is Carlette Bruce. I'm originally from Central Arkansas, currently living in Dallas, Texas for the past 15 years.  I've been an IT Project Manager the majority of my career and recently started investing in real estate in April 2015.  I have two single families and a lot in Little Rock and a duplex in Hot Springs.  I have a four-plex in a historic district of Little Rock under contract as of today.  My strategy is to buy, fix and hold in improving areas.  Eventually I'd like to use the equity or sale some properties to purchase apartment complexes.

@Alex Craig Well played sir. I realized after seeing your post that I had thought about asking about the properties but allowed myself to conclude that @Carlette Brown wasn't looking to sell them due to the comment "My strategy is to buy, fix and hold in improving areas."

Thank you for the reminder that it's not to our benefit to assume what a seller wants.

On a separate note, and not wanting to hijack this thread, feel free to shoot me a personal message with your buying criteria. We just contracted a lot of 10 and have another lot possibly here in Central Arkansas area. Pipelines are filling faster than we can flip so we are looking for reliable buyers! 

Cheers.
