Hi Everyone,

I currently live in Maryland and I am starting investing career. Looking for my first flip as we speak. There could be a chance in a couple months that I would be moving to Texas for a job. I would like to continue investing in Maryland because this is the market I know and feel comfortable in but I don't know what I would need for flips or buy and holds if I am not in the area. I have my team (if you want to call it that), my contractor, realtor, CPA, insurance agent, attorney, set up in Maryland.  I want to make investing my career in the future so if I can't invest when I'm not in the state then I just won't move. Now if I do move I think I would be in the Houston area which I hear is a great place to invest so that would be awesome but I am not sure if I want to leave a area I know. What do you guys think?

Thank ahead of time

Hi Everyone,

A house a came across my radar yesterday that is more expensive than the houses that I have been dealing with. I am used to buying houses around the 150k mark and flipping for 250k and up.  This house is listed at 300k and all the houses are being sold in the 530k area. Obviously I will be paying more for repairs because the house is bigger but what other more expensive things will I be looking at. I want it to look like a 500k house not at 500k house with 300k appliances in it.

Thanks ahead of time.
