But in this case I'm trying to zone in on a specific type of deal so that I can focus on that and try to specialize in it. 

I do have a mortgage currently in my name that I am in the process of having assumed, so currently my DTI is very high because of this.

To which I have been told that we would need around 25K-30K in liquid assets in order to be approved.

Investment Info:

Other other investment.

I have a shop on my property that has a one bedroom apartment.

House Hacking that for $800/mo.

In the more suburban areas of the City towards the County line, you may find smaller duplexes or 1930s craftsman/bungalows that are split into 2-3 units in areas where the values are much more affordable, but also not in the City center.

I actually just wrote about this in my newsletter last week!

@Jake YoungI’m right there with ya, I’m a born Alaskan and will be 46 in April.

Anyone in Houston investing in an opportunity zone?

I'm a licensed builder and have done just about everything imaginable in the construction trades. 

One was actively investing in a property that was in PA but significantly far from where I live.
