In the City of Austin, we saw a 6.5% increase to $575,000*Total sales increased 2.5% in the metro.

Weigh the long-term benefits of the low mortgage rate you have versus selling and getting $500k from a sale exempt from capital gains tax.

I learned about them from a Rent to Retirement podcast where they interviewed a former W2 FT sales guy in tech (that's me today...) turn real estate investor.

Home sales hit their lowest level in almost 30 years, so it's not unusual to see a property sitting on the market for many months.

Moreover, I would recommend prioritizing a W2 position over 1099 self-employment/sales for two reasons.

Multiple properties listed on the website portfolio appeared to be ones they would possibly not have initiated the LOI/PSA/sale as the properties are known to be bought/run/sold by other entities/syndicators.

If you are looking to list the portfolio, the agent could do Loopnet and the MLS.If you are looking for a private sale I have a few investors that I could shop it to, as well some private groups that I am a member of.

The only reason to look into franchises that flip houses or do renovations pre-sale is because you have existing business that you could leverage on top of this to add more clientele.

Sale your first unit or two.
