Between a demanding FT job (that I enjoy,) a wife who also works FT, and two young children, I have no real desire to "all in" to real estate as a FT career at this point in my life.

Texas is exploring several public-private partnerships to tackle housing affordability, especially as demand outpaces supply.

The 1% rule is doable, but don’t just go off that—focus on areas with strong rental demand and where tenant quality is solid.

Still wouldn't invest there because local inventory is far outpacing demand.

@Shaan WashingtonAtlanta's outskirts offer affordability, growth potential, and strong rental demand.

Visibility drives clickability, and not using the full length of the ad to add keywords and business-related details is a missed opportunity when you’re fighting for every click in Google Ads.Conclusion:If you know you want to get off-market seller leads from Google, and already committed the budget for it, make sure your ads are optimal and that your keyword selection will not cause you to appear on ones that will waste you time and money.The Google Ads landscape is fiercely competitive in today’s market, demanding an investment of several thousand dollars per month to gain meaningful traction.

After several inspections and a few deals that didn’t pan out, I was able to lock down a duplex in a high-demand Airbnb area.

Even in landlord-unfriendly cities like NYC and San Francisco, major investors are drawn by strong demand, high population density, and historically stable property appreciation.

Hi @Dennis Pulscher, I agree with @Kevin Sobilo - your best bet here is to deliver a 10 Day Demand Notice for non-payment. 

With $100k, focusing on properties that offer high rental demand or flipping potential could allow you to leverage your funds effectively, especially in your booming area.
