Hey all! For some of you investors that are purchasing in the Midwest, I'm curious what you're seeing as average cash on cash values for more purchases made with cash. As I'm analyzing properties, I'm just making sure...

I think this is a calculation a lot of homeowners are making right now--especially if they have a low interest mortgage, equity, and their house will cashflow as a rental.The choice is a personal one of course, but I think your future self will thank you if you pull out some equity from your existing home with a HELOC for the downpayment on the next house and a cushion renting your current home, use a property manager as you have other things to do, and buy the next house and do the same thing again.

In Texas, as a licensed agent, you’re generally required to use TREC-approved forms for real estate transactions unless an exception applies, like (I believe) leases longer than 1 year or where no TREC form exists.

If this is simply you not wanting to accept partial payments and the rent is current, stop accepting it - and send a Lease Violation/Notice of Quit for Non-Payment of Rent - and force the full rent to be paid per the lease or start eviction.
