I will preface this with the fact that I have a legal background, specifically with estate planning and asset protection.

Real estate transactions, especially flips, come with specific tax implications such as the potential for dealer classification, short-term capital gains, and cost allocation for renovations, which can significantly impact your tax liability.

Build a solid track record with these properties before proposing larger moves.Leverage your commercial experience to identify growth opportunities, and start building out your team.

You'll also want to make sure you have your full team ready so you can be prepared when the right deal comes along. 

Too often, I just hear people say they are "looking for a good deal", but defining that good deal in a specific area makes it much easier to spot. 

I'm curious as to what's important specifically about the FHA loan?

If you have specific questions about property management, I'll be happy to help!

There are a lot of good meetups for real estate investors in the area that would be good to grow your network and learn from others that are and have been in your shoes as a new investor, message me and I can share on some specific monthly meetups.Also sharing some multifamily data, this is Boston proper so it has an interesting trend compared to the rest of Massachusetts.

@David Lewis if you wanna chat rental rates and market specifics in some of the micro markets mentioned above I'm happy to.

That said, I highly recommend speaking with a local professional in the DFW area to get insights tailored to your specific goals.
