The block, and city as a whole.

Quote from @Elizabeth Block: I am interested as well, especially in properties/deals within 50 miles of Las Colinas (Irving area). 

painter is Eastern block owned but all hispanic.

There is a comp on the block at $4,500 per BP rent estimator but it is larger with 4 bed and 3.5 bath.

While I would rent it out as much as possible, husband would want us to block out 2-5 days/month there. 

We had zero regulation over STRs here for a few years when Airbnb first started back in the day, and truthfully it was bad: whole blocks of downtown were basically hotels for a little while there and it started to feel more like a commercial district than residential.

I dont have the full purchase price of this 4plex to invest though, so I would have to finance half to 2/3 which seems like a stumbling block. i can still make the numbers work, but at a much lesser monthly profit i suppose. i also dont have the w2 income to support 2 mortgages (counting the one i have on my house), so i assume any bank would have to count the existing leases towards my income which i understand is possibleI guess I was wondering about advice, or red flags, anything, on this specific deal.

.), and a wonderful supermarket that is close by and walkable (2-3 blocks away).The reviews are excellent, and we are currently superhosts.

@Joe Villeneuve Block Buster, Toys R Us, Sears, Kmart, and Borders all were corporate guarantees with solid credit at one point in time.
