For fulfillment you can do it yourself to save money if you are broke, but ultimately if you want better response rates and focusing your time on value-add, then you will want to outsource fulfillment to a shop that has economies of scale and can offer you great rates.

Houston's economy compared to New Orleans is much different.  

Our downtown area has had a huge revamp, we're one of the hottest destinations for college-educated millennials (which is great for the economy and future population growth), and our unemployment rate has been dropping steadily, https://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LAUMT0113820000000...One of our team members worked up a pretty comprehensive report with some great stats on this market, so anyone can feel free to reach out via DM and I'll shoot it over, or you can download it for free over at Keith Weinhold's awesome site, Get Rich Education: http://www.getricheducation.com/project/117-birmin...

Again, I don't know your area pricing, but based on the economies of scale doing 25 of practically the same farm houses, a good GC should be able to do that for $125 per foot or less.

I paid $154,000 for an 1 acre lot, the economy crashed and so did the lot price to $30,000, the price as of today is $90,000, I don't think holding on to it Is a good idea anymore I still have to pay for lot Maintinance, community fess and property tax on it, any opinion will be appreciated.

once you get above 7 front doors, you have a little more economies of scale to deal with when Murphy's law raises its ugly head. 

A few reasons: turn key sellers take all the equity out up front and it is single family investing, not large multi.Large multi allows for efficiency and economies of scale and/or buying dozens of SFs within a few miles.

It's very similar to Indianapolis in terms of prices, rents strong economy and being landlord friendly.

Rents won't go up unless sales go up so you are effectively tied to the organization's growth which is highly based on the economy and assuming we are at a peak sales may take a hit in the near future.

I was juat suggesting local econimists have been a good resource on helping me to decide how to position myself to take advantage of what could be coming in my local economy.
