Looking to buy single or multi family in Austin, Texas

[Renu Grover]

Hello BP team. I recently joined BP and have been reading many posts. This seems like such a great resource to meet smart and great people. I am considering investing in Austin as a remote investor (currently live in San Francisco). I have been using public (census) and private sources of data
(neighborhood scout) to get a feel of Austin's different neighborhoods. Some questions:

1. - seems there are a lot of new developments in downtown -- is Austin being overdeveloped?
2. - in other words, is this a good time to get into the Austin market?
3. - what neighborhoods within or near austin are worth looking into?
4. - any recommendations as to whether single home or multi home is preferred by those renting in austin?

Any suggestions or contacts you can refer me to would be fantastic! I'll be traveling to Austin for a few weeks in the near future to get a better sense of the neighborhoods. Happy to connect with anyone in person, via phone.

Looking forward to engaging with the BP community!

@Renu Grover That is really a hard question to answer. I suggest reading @Caleb L. Blog post. It is a really good one and I think it will give you better self insight than I can offer you.
