Jumping back in from Austin, Texas

[Courtney Cain]

Hello Everyone,

I am Courtney Cain and I had a slow but fun start with real estate investing. Bought a single family rehab back in 1997 in Houston and loved turning the place around. Our next rehab was in Austin. We enjoyed renovating that one, too, so we bought another one. We have been renting out the third one for over ten years.

We recently branched out into Colorado and hope to be renting out that property soon.

Now that I can work on investing full time, I'd like to pick up the pace here in Texas. I hope to make several rental purchases in the next year. I love owning rental property and even though I have some amazing horror stories, I love being a landlord. I grew up in San Antonio and would like to stretch out of my comfort zone in that market with wholesale purchasing and multifamily properties.

@Courtney Cain where is your rental in Colorado? Why did you pick here? I can't tell you the number of times I've heard the market here is overpriced and yet I regularly see people from out of state buying here. Just curious about your motivation for that.
