Like mentioned already, your budget isn’t realistic. If your looking for a flip that will come out in decent shape after, your going to be spending at least $125k, probably closer to $150k. Buying a crappy property will probably ultimately lead to crappy tenants. I’d suggest buying something modest around $170-$220k, and make any repairs you need from there. Look in a 20 minute radius of all the military bases in San Antonio.

I am looking for a buy and hold actually. I understand that the total costs after repairs could lead to $125K.

Good luck with that. 60-80k is going to take lots of marketing, website, social media campaign and lots of $$$ per month trying to find that. It is tough to find sub 100k houses unless you go to the REALLY rough parts of town.

What in your opinion would be the best areas to look for with a minimal budget? assuming I had more than 60-80k to invest.

Thank you

Hello All,

I'm an investor from Israel, looking for my first investment in the San Antonio & metro area

I'm looking to buy & hold a single/two family property, with an ARV of 120-150,000$, and I want to buy this property in a bad shape for 60-80,000$ and renovate it.

and then expand more.

I'm looking to build a team (agent, rehab contractor, management company, loan broker...)

but before i start all that I need to better understand the market.

what areas would be suitable for that strategy? It dosen't have to be in the city itself, but can also be in the surrounding areas.

thank you:)

Hi @Ethan Lahav, the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Census Bureau both have great data that is free.

There are also many great resources both inside and outside of BP that allow you to do research on prospective markets.

Hope this helps! Let me know if I can be of any assistance.

Thank you so much. Excuse me for what may be a stupid question, but can you explain what you mean by BP?
