Hi @Anthony Heatley, I'm new to the DFW market too but both my business partner and I come from the DMV (DC/MD/VA) area and to us, these prices especially for multi-families, are breath of fresh air. In fact, there are very few small MFH around the way compared to here so we're looking to house-hack but are open to other opportunities.

Best of luck to you!  

I agree with the consensus.  I've been in apartments, rental houses and condos all my adult life and I have NEVER bought a shower curtain rod - that was always provided for me and I buy the liner and curtains and rings.  Now, as a prospective landlord, I can see putting up a rod and providing a liner just to protect my investment.  I like what @Jim C. said.  Besides, even though these are adults, you have to help them help you.  

@Jean Nicolas oh - silly me - I forgot!  I'm a member of the Upper Marlboro chapter, but if you also want to check out CAZA, they meet in Alexandria as well.  You can sign up through the website.

Wow, you're doing great, Jean - Kudos!  

Thanks, @Nicole Graves!  Will do! 

@Pam I. and @Paul Timmins Thanks for posting. Pam, it looks like I'll start looking around the Richmond area. Paul, those are great suggestions. I didn't have the "Start Here" link so I'll start there, and find 2 more REI groups to join.

Thanks!    

@DerrickCamber I feel you but just keep doing the right thing.  I have student loan debt and it ain't pretty but it is what it is.  I paid down or off most other debt I had and I have a great credit score but that student loan debt will be with me for a while so I'm not going to let that stop me from getting started. 

     A few of the right deals can clear it up long before I'm able to pay them off via even doubling up on monthly payments.
