Is anyone in the Abilene Texas Market? Looking to connect and potentially start up an investor meet-up! 


 I posted a few weeks ago and it was quiet as can be as we have an off market deal that we were looking to network with people on.

 @Chris Seveney Ill be there in May for 4-5 years! Do you get deals out there or are you looking for deals out there


 I have a deal right now that is mid construction.

Ahh okay, I am not there until end of May so I wouldn't be able to do much right now, still working on building up a team out there, how did you get your deal, and do you have a team of contracors you like out there?

 I do not, I am literally looking to pay someone who is a newere investor to learn the ropes and be eyes and ears for me. For all the people on BP who want to get started, when it comes to taking action its always crickets.


 Okay, well I will be happy to be your eyes and ears on the ground when I get there. I'm going there from Charleston, SC where I have been pretty successful as an investor and agent. Working on my license for TX currently.

How are people managing their rentals out of state? Specifically, turning a unit, Changing locks, Repairs AND showing to potential new tenants? Are you just getting a leasing agent to throw a lock box on it, and having your contractor go in do some work, and then leasing agent showing the home?

My 2 cents @Bobby Paquette - if it seems to good to be true, it probably is. I fell off the wagon when I saw a bullet point that indicated all second story apartments have an elevator and their suggestion that it was possible to get 1000% Plus Potential Cash-on-Cash return in the 1st Year.

Where has SCDC built? Check with the municipality where construction is being done to get their take on the development.

Who is handling the syndication related to their raising money? What institution is financing the land development and construction?

No, I've not invested with SCDC, and it's not likely I will without evidence they can do / have done what they've claimed on their web site.


 They have land under contract, $2B in agreements signed so far, so that’s it really. Ground breaking this quarter.

If you have been listening to the recent podcasts with James and Jessie, you know they brought their value add components. What are some of the lesser common things you add to your properties that may make it feel more luxury, or make it worth more?
