Everyone in corpus right now thinks they can charge an arm and a leg for any little service good luck!


The island locally is viewed as “higher end” / touristy  part of town


Port Aransas is worse too

Hi Joshua!  I am an RE agent here in CC.  I do know a property manager that would be perfect for you.  I referred him to one of my clients who has a rental property.  The plumbing recently went south in the rental and he managed repairs and maintenance.  Of course there is a fee for all of that but he is a great guy and I would highly recommend him.  Private message me and I will share his info.

Do you still have property manager info?

Hello again biggerpockets 

im going to start out using a HELOC from my old man's house he will be having around a 200k heloc pretty soon and i will flip my first home some time late january or early February using a 100k or less of that heloc

I have recently made an amazing encounter with a broker that is in charged of selling off a local credit unions foreclosures and i have to say even with my inexperience’s in flips there is money to be made in my local market 

Currently looking at a property that is foreclosed on might go for 55k or 60k bank hasnt approved a price yet took a contractor that i trust and another one i never dealt with and around a similar bids 25k-35k repairs needed

1950’s home  has been updated electrical wise plumbing still not sure will get inspected and foundation is sound on slab

Needs roof redone

Kitchen

1 full Restroom

1/2 restroom

Driveway work

Detached Garage work (door and cement work)

Redo kitchen cieling

Redo living room cieling

Move electrical outlets

Redo floor or overlay with laminate (ugly old tile)

New paint in and out

(ultimately on what i choose material wise prefabbed or custom)

a recent house 3 houses down the same road was recently flipped and sold for 140k is sightly larger 1280 sqft vs 1080sqft (one im looking to buy) the realtor i deal with works for this broker as well and comps match the area for what the house sold and ultimately said if i fix n flip this property i should see minimum 125k selling price high of 145k (market is hot at the moment) 

Given i should over estimate the rehab 35k rehab 55k purchase

All in at 90k 

Sales at minimum 125k

Potential profit 35k minus holding cost expenses and commission to realtor should be arund 27.5k profit 

If this works out i would repeat and do more flips jn the future to build up enough cash (really want to build up 500k cash not counting HELOC) to were i can do multiple flips at a time and keeping 1 free and clear to have a high cash flowing sfr rentals sooner then just 200$ a month per door really want to have 800$ a month cash flowing properties

I know alot of people like over leveraging and using OPM’s but this is my realistic niche i can accomplish especially in the hot market im currently in

I run a restaurant as my full time “job” but can definitely get out and manage my contractor and have worked with him in the past, for sure one i get the hang of flipping ill probably stick a manager in my place and go full time flipping myself if it goes smoothly (never does i know)

Would this method be worth while to build up cash fastest way without leveraging and using OPM's for now with SFR's and flips

Go easy on me i been reading alot of books and listening to podcasts daily and get the lingo of the real estate investing world and alot of different ideas from what other people have done in the past to be successful 

Like episode 121 from bp real estate podcasts those guys are my age and killing in their 20’s yes all hands on but they going strong for sure

(Sorry long read)

Have you looked into the zoning? If the land is surrounded by "heavy industrial plants," you may not be able to build new residential there. Even if you can, what kind of tenant would you be drawing?

 Its in a town we have a restaurant in i do mainly restaurant business, and have 1 sfr ( manage 3 srf including my own) at the moment but just recently discovered this lot off market someone trying to get rid of it yes new construction is possible yes i know contractors that will jump on it right away

Just mainly want to hear if bulding a brand new 4plex i can rent out to out of town workers on a month to month basis is worth while at a cost of 275k for 200-250 cashflow a door a month at a 15 year loan is worth it?

most 4 plexes that pop up on market need alot of repairs and are pretty outdated and i can build one probably cheaper then buy and repair and have reduced Capex in the first few years, well in this town anyways.
