Hey y'all,

Happy Moose Holdings is inviting you to join us on Zoom on 3 October 2020 at 0930 for a 30-minute meetup just to say hi and network with other local investors from Del Rio and Laughlin AFB.  We'd love to see you there!

Post: Canadian Investor - Analyzing San Antonio

Anything in south Converse (or just south of Converse) I personally am going to avoid.  Not only due to poor Independent School District and some pockets of crime, but also because there is a lot of clay soil over on that side of town, causing a lot of foundation shift, especially in the older homes.  I do have two SFHs Northeast of San Antonio, and this is something you have to look out for, especially if you care about resale value and not just cashflow.

Also, be sure you factor in some incredibly high property tax rates in San Antonio when crunching your cash flow numbers.  Bexar county is really expensive.
