I'm a local realtor and investor, so I’d love to help you find the right property and navigate the market.

These will be markets where housing is affordable for both residents and owners.

It's not RTR's fault the property can't absorb proper cap ex, that's a product of the market.

I think our modeling has adapted to market changes over the years, so we've stuck with Excel as we can easily change the parameters to keep it "fresh".

One week into 2025 and the US housing market is facing considerable new challenges. 

Being in the Austin market gives you a great advantage since it’s such a hotspot for investors.

In CA (my market) the seller is required to make honest disclosure statement and you can collect for material non-disclosure.I suspect you already have learned that you need to check the status of all permits. 

I have found some of the best contractors from Facebook groups in the local market for example "Real Estate Investors of Oklahoma City".

If I'm ever in need of a broker in the DE markets, I will reach out. 

I think you have the basics of meeting partners and people to work with in your local market and seem to be well on the way with two deals going already so big congrats there!
