I am a licensed real estate agent and have access to MLS just need to learn more about the wholesaling market in Texas....        

I live and invest in the Lafayette area myself - I own several in the area - broussard, freetown, broadmoor etc There's a decent market here, I think it's somewhat competitive but there is some availability as wellOff-market is the way to go 100%Purchasing a starter home is a great way to get started - I turned my first home into a rental before I even looked into real estate investing.

Don’t forget. 2024 rent cap was 8.9% so you may never get “market rent”.

Since then, we've analyzed at least 75 deals across multiple markets, developed our buy box, and choose a strategy that aligns with our goals.

If I just make a single listing on FF for this 5/2 and say list it for $4000 / month (market in this area), how would I get 2-3 random nurses to commit to the property?

So there payments are $200 - $400 dollars under market.

For example, you might choose to take a blanket mortgage covering all properties, BUT perhaps the market softens and later you wish to sell a property.

I was wondering if anyone had ideas on how I might be able to attract more tenants who are okay with having this type of policy as I know it might be a bit of a niche market, but I'd love to hear any suggestions.

You can get screwed on changing markets and unreliable contractors though.  

Do you have a team built in any other markets?
