First rental propery investement in Austin

[Jay Shah]

Hello Bp community,

I have been preparing/reading to start investing in austin . Looking at 250k - 300k range. I am not sure which area out of round rock, del Valle ,pflugerville and cedar park to select. Or are there other areas which I am not considering but are worth checking ?

Also I wanted to check if anyone from BP community has done or knows if it is an option to invest near austin / del valle using "opportunity zones" ? 

Thanks

jay

@Bryan Noth and @Ryan Kelly .Thank you for your insights. Those sounds important points.  I still correlate my last visit of austin with torchy's tacos , food at lake travis restaurant , train ride with my kids at Zilker Park etc. so overall living experience does matter. I will have to brainstorm more looks like.
