People seem to buy mainly for appreciation, but I'm not sold appreciation will continue to rise the way it has the past 5 - 6 years, so feel like CF is the safer investing avenue for me. 

Here are a few additional ideas that have worked for me and others in competitive markets like Austin:Off-Market Leads from Contractors: I had a friend who rehabbed a house in North Austin last year.

One thing that's worked really well for me is looking through county deed records of the addresses that the LLC's are being housed under.I'd say 50% of the time the LLC address leads to a residential property, that I can then skip trace. 

I know the IRS asks about entity vs personal members and if they're foreign or not specifically on the 1065 and other tax forms. 

And I totally agree, providing the best value is key and I know that's what would eventually "win" the deal for me at the end of the day.

I've been stuck on trying to analyze and find deals but it gets very complicated trying to understand how to analyze a great deal for me.

I have seen some people as of late asking about what forms they use for their leases. 

Also an investor myself, id love to talk to you more about the DFW market and what strategies have worked for me over the years!

Again I’m not an attorney, this is just what makes the most sense for me.
