Newbie saying Hello and looking to invest in TX

[Kavita Joshi]

Hello Everyone!

I am new to Biggerpockets and REI. Have been reading and learning for the last couple of months. Looks like I am ready for my first investment. Although I now live in WA, I have selected some Texas cities like Tyler, Longview, Killeen, Temple, San Antonio as I am a previous resident of the area and know a little about that part of state.

Any suggestions on multifamily units here? Expert tips to avoid huge mistakes being out of state would be highly appreciated.

Thank you
