I’m trying to get started in short term rental investing, but I have a problem. I have the money to invest in short term rentals, but I don’t have a steady income to qualify for a loan. I’m looking for someone who needs the funds from a partner and who has experience in this field and who can qualify for a loan. Please PM me if you are interested in starting a partnership. I do have experience in long term rentals, but want to expand.

I’m in the Houston area and I’ve been wanting to get into self storage. I have experience in single family homes, but I’m wanting to make the switch to self storage. I’d love to connect with people on here and here past experiences or interest in the subject.

Hi! My name is josh smith. I play professional baseball and was just traded to the Texas Rangers. I am looking for a place in Houston Texas to live in the off-season. My plan is to rent out a place for a few months and try to sublease the property in the months that I am gone. Does anyone know any landlords who allow people to sublease their property in the Houston Texas area? Thanks!

@Rene Owczarski it’s a 5 year old house and it’s just cracks. Doesn’t seem to be anything too bad, but I know over time it could do damage.

I had an inspector come by and look at a house I am about to purchase and the front of the house has a couple stucco cracks (not very big). I was wondering what your opinions are on stucco cracks and are they a bigger deal ?
