Hey Steve welcome, I am just starting out in the San Antonio area. It would be great to hear from an experienced investor like yourself about how you got your start in the area.

I met with Supreme Lending when looking to buy and rehab our first primary residence. I don't remember the exact terms of the loan though but I think it was along the lines of 5%. Let me know if you need the contact info.

what area is your multi family in?

That whole are is being rejuvenated but some areas are more promising than others. When you mean its in that area, do you mean that it is actually in Government Hill. Or is it on the other side of 35 closer to Near east or Dignowity. All of those areas are seeing rejuvenation, and have a lot of great houses with awesome potential to be beautiful homes again. There are many businesses starting to extend from Broadway into government hill. The Alamo brewery was finished not long ago and its in the Near east/Dignowity area and since then there have also been a great deal of restaurants and bars popping up close by. 

I am very excited to see the progess in the older neighborhoods of San Antonio, and I really hope it continues. We just moved to Tobin Hill north which is a little south of there and in the 6 months we have been here we have seen new construction real estate, old homes being renovated, new businesses etc.

Feel free to message me directly if you have more specific questions, I would be more than happy to help.

I am a graduate of UTSA, and my friends and I all lived in single family homes after our freshman year. We lived in areas as close as College Park and the homes all on Hausman to the Oxbow and as far as houses off of 1604 and Bandera. When we were looking for a house (in 2010) not many property management or owners were willing to accept students as tenants.

I recently moved back to San Antonio and have been thinking of looking to invest in the area but just have not taken the time to go drive the neighborhoods for any potential deals. I think there is potential there but in the last few years the amount of apartments going up has been impressive.

I still think you could market your property a certain way that would attract student tenants, just not sure you are willing to deal with that type of tenant.

Welcome Jacob! San Antonio has been evolving in a great way. Feel free to reach out anytime and best of look to you with your investments.

I will try to make it as well, hopefully my schedule permits.

Do any of y'all know of any San Antonio REIA meet ups in the first week of May?
