@Alex Petrowski Welcome to the BP Family and you have come to the right place. 

Looks like you have been doing some research and connecting with the right folks.

I normally host the meet-up meeting in Houston/Spring once in a month where we connect and help each other grow for FREE.

You can find the next meeting here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/...
I live in Spring so we are close to each other. Let's connect.

Goodluck and Happy Investing!

@Luca Giani KvCore and Opcity are not the same thing. 

It allows you to create Listing Sign Riders, create squeeze pages, landing pages, and FB Marketplace Posts. 

You can also auto-post to social media. It also has the capacity to do some auto follow-up with your leads via some auto campaigns.

Goodluck

@Judy Wang This is very subject depending on your short and long term goals. 

You can also get 1% in Houston, Texas in the C- and D neighborhoods. 

You may have to deal with low-quality tenants and the issues that come with that.

You have received a lot of other cities here as well. Do your research on them and follow what is best for you.

Goodluck.

@Bhaskar Nyshadham Welcome to BP Family and Yes, your research is on point.

I specialize in working with Out of State Investors. Reach out and I may be able to help or point you in the right direction.

Goodluck.

Goodluck

@Mariano Alegria You can have multiple mortgages at a time. 

I will suggest you get hold of a Rockstar Lender. Make sure they are familiar with Real Estate Investment and have experience working with investors.

Goodluck and I can not wait to read your success story.

@Melanie Daigle Focus on getting your the #1 on the list first which is ON-FIRE Agent and the rest will be a breeze.

O - Organize (The Investor-Agent must be well-organized)

N - Network (The Investor-Agent must be well network with other Real Estate professionals like Lenders, Appraisers, Property Managers, Inspectors, Insurance Agent, Contractors, etc)

F - Focus (The Investor-Agent MUST Focus on YOU)

I - Investor/Investment-Savvy (MUST be INVESTMENT SAVVY)

R - Responsive (Must Be responsive and answer your call/text)

E - Experience  (Must be an investor or have experience working with investors)

Goodluck
