This is just a generic comment I will make as an investor/Realtor here in Austin who knows a lot about Texas real estate. Many of you say that Austin is hard to get good cash flow and some parts of Austin I would agree. However, Austin is growing/spreading big time and the forecasts do not show it slowing down. Want to make money in real estate - follow the jobs. Apple, Visa, Amazon, Samsung, and the list goes on, are all expanding their high tech (aka high paying) operations into the Austin area and more companies are coming daily. 110 people are moving to Austin every single day. The outskirt areas of Leander, Cedar Park, Round Rock, Pflugerville, San Marcos, Georgetown and others (all within 30 min of downtown Austin) have great opportunities for investment with nice cash flow. But yes, unless you are a VRBO champion, nothing in downtown Austin is a great cash flow investment. The same could be said for many areas of Houston and San Antonio. Happy to provide opportunities for anyone interested in Austin.
