As I drive around the area to look at them, I'm struck by the quantity of mid-rises that continue to go up in Midtown, Montrose, Rice Village--basically, everywhere it seems. 

For example, if you buy a $100,000 property, you would try to get $2,000/month in rent, or 2% of the purchase rice.  

@Ashley Rice I only made 100k in in 2018 from collecting overages.

Quote from @Matt Rice: I'd agree with most of the comments here suggesting that house-hacking is a great first step into REI!

For example "No cooking grease, oil, animal meat bones, pasta, rice, any other substance down the garbage disposals except apple and carrot peels and liquids with no solid matter such as juice and soda" and "no vaping and smoking of any tobacco product, marijuana or any substance" on the property, including the backyard"
