New to real estate - Houston, TX

[Kris Seelbach]

Hi everyone, I am new to BiggerPockets forum, this is my first post. I am an Internal Medicine physician here in Houston, TX. I am going to start investing in real estate here and wanted to see if anyone has any realtor, property management, and CPA referrals.

I am currently viewing properties (single family homes) in the Katy, Tomball, and Cypress area because my current realtor who has 30 years experience in Houston has steered me in this direction. I initially was interested in multi-family units near Medical center or Heights area. IF anyone has an opinion or is in this now and has any advice for me, please help or reply with your experience/thoughts. 

Thanks and look forward to learning from you all.

Tristan S. I found it from a wholesaler who had it listed on myhousedeals dot com. It's a 4/2.5 2500sqft in 77346. Bought for $135k, needs $20k in updates and general repairs (could have done a lot less probably) and the appraisal came back at $191k, subject to the scope of work and budget that I submitted. It will have to have another appraisal when the work is done and I'm hoping to push the appraisal up to $199,000.
