Killeen, TX - New small multifamily owner/LL

[Ryan Stout]

Hi everyone, I recently closed on a triplex in Killeen, Texas, and wanted to reach out to anyone who had any tips, or tricks, or just wanted to connect! Contractors, agents, PMs, investors, anyone haha. The property is relatively updated with an average amount of renovations here and there (getting one unit rent-ready after the previous tenant, new flooring in another, fixing some doors, new paint, etc.) needed across the units. I live in California but plan to manage it myself (yes I know I know) with the help of a trusted friend I know in the area (a friend who knows what they are getting into lol). Frankly, the costs of a PMC just do not make sense at the moment with the cash flow; not sure if I was just talking to the wrong people or that's just what this area is like but it's not really viable unless the monthly rate is lowered to make sense. Regardless, I just wanted to make a post and see whose active or knows about the Killeen/Bell County area. Any comments, replies, or tips are much appreciated :)
