GO DRIVE A TRUCK IRL.

I like the strong infrastructure investment and overall job growth trajectory in these parts of Williamson County.We're also seeing similar job and infrastructure growth between Austin and Bastrop mainly thanks to Elon Musk's investments in the area.

The property has 7 acres with a 3/2 main house and a second separate 2/1 house (which also needs renovation) with its own drive.  

.- Generally landlord-friendly state, no rent control- Secure government jobs/contracts make the real estate market much more resilient to recessions / major corrections- 15-minute drive to the Capitol of the United States- 4 Seasons- 15-minute drive to Arlington, Virginia (Amazon Headquarters 2 ((2017 announced, 2030 is bringing 25,000 new high-paying    jobs to the area)), Boeing Headquarters (2022), Microsoft Headquarters (2021), CoStar Headquarters (2024), Bloomberg    Headquarters (2017 expanded), Deloitte, and the list goes on)Thesis:Although more companies continue to go back to the office, there will be a shift toward a good amount of workers being able to be in hybrid roles.

Drive around and figure out a few areas you would like to live in with your budget.

Panicking sellers may temporarily drive prices lower, but stabilization is expected.

Some folks want a seat at the table and real control, while others prefer to be passive.. letting the sponsor do the heavy lifting.From what I read in The Economist, some markets (like Phoenix) are experiencing fresh pockets of growth in multifamily, so it’s definitely worth exploring if you’re eyeing future expansion.

Unless you have a specific monthly target for your payment you can spread that out to make it a Win/Win.There has been a lot of growth in Denver over the last 2-3 years and new builds as well I just closed on a home for a customer in commerce city they also moved from CA and needed a fresh start. 

Are you seeing similar challenges with rent growth?

Yes, the bi-yearly nit picky inspections can drive me crazy, (torn screen , etc) but in the long run it’s worth it.
