@Fernando Garcia I live in the Katy / Houston area but plan to invest outside of this area. I did one flip back in 2019 that was successful even though my goal is long term holds. 

@Laura Sulak thanks for all the great info!! You take on Killeen seems to be a somewhat common theme from those I've spoken with. Hoping the BRRRR method would work in Temple. My wife's friend lives in Temple and love it there. They did somewhat of a live in flip I believe. Also, I appreciate the meetup link!!

@Derek Smith Thanks for the info!

@Andrew Zannotti I am hoping to be able to BRRRR as well. Whether it be a 2-4 or a single family.

@Pete Harper Thanks for the recommendation. I'll be reaching out soon.

@Andres I. Cepeda thanks for the PM. I'll reply back shortly so we can begin to chat about the area.

@Account Closed I'll gladly buy coffee or lunch when I make it that way. Sounds like you have real pulse for the area! Congrats on the large portfolio and I'l shoot you a message shortly. Would love to chat a bit. 

@Matt Brown sounds like a fantastic team. Thanks in advance for the contacts! I’m hoping to round up a handful of connections and then take a trip that way to meet some people face to face and drive the area with a few people who are willing to show me around in exchange for a free lunch or dinner or both and hopefully a long lasting connection.

@Staci Taggart thanks! I will definitely look her up!

@Jordan Moorhead same here. The more I dig the more it makes sense for me to at least make the trip to meet some local investors, realtors, PM’s etc.

Bumping this post

My wife has a close friends who's family moved to Temple TX about a year ago. It wasn't until this past weekend that I began to run a search on the MSA in the Temple / Killeen area. The outlook according to the data I pulled shows a stronger recent job growth, future job growth, population growth, and lower unemployment than the US avg. Price point of entry seems very reasonable as well. I ran some very high-level numbers on potential rents and it seems to fit the model as well. 

I'm impressed enough to want to make the short 2.5hr trip from Katy in order to drive the area and take a deeper dive into what opportunities might be out there. Is there anyone actively investing in the Temple / Killeen area that is active on BP? I did a search but came up short as most of the posts were outdated by a few years. 

If anyone can put me in touch with a realtor, PM, GC or you yourself are willing to chat on the phone and connect please feel free to send me a message! I would love to talk with some like minded investors in the Temple / Killeen area and hopefully meet when I make the drive!

Thanks in advance to those who are willing to chat!

@Luke Hadden my call with Singapore was work related (oil & gas) not real estate related. Sorry for the confusion. I was telling Jeremy that's why I couldn't make it to the meetup here in Houston.

@Jeremy Gengenbach that's great! I will shoot to make the next meeting but with our weekly call on Tuesday nights it really just comes down to whether or not its my turn to take the call for the team. Either way, if this gets in the way we can get together for lunch or have a quick chat on the phone sometime.
