We drove the whole neighborhoods that had no For Rent or For Sale signs.  

Hi my name is Austin and I am new to this whole real estate buisness.

Move out photos for proof of damage.I'm pretty good at ball-parking Costs now, but occasionally I send a GC for a quote for the whole enchilada.

Please contact me if you need any assistance in locating suitable properties to achieve your real estate goals.  

So if you're interested in sharing, I'd love to hear about your first whole sale deal or home flip!

Welcome @Scott Kolar let us know how we can help you achieve your 2016 goals.

Free event covered by a few sponsors (I hope we get a few more so I'm not footing the whole bill, but I will if that's what it takes to get the ball rolling).You can RSVP here: http://www.meetup.com/real-estate-investing-club/I'm shopping a few locations in Katy, if anyone has any recommendations (to fit up to 200, adequate parking, and enough seats).

@Scott Szurek, Most states have a governing body that does child care assessments to make sure the property is kosher for running a day care.

Its simply like a whole separate loan and I'm using the equity in the home to secure it, kind of like using it as collateral?  

It's a whole lot slower moving than LA, and industry is more concentrated.Just make sure you're buying in a decent area, and if you leave yourself some room for rents and valuations to go down you should be fine.
