Also, look at their profiles and search BP for others that match that may be able to assist you:)

I am in the process of updating my profile on Bigger Pockets and put my first deal in but have done a number of deals since then. 

I’m a fairly new investor, currently with only one STR/MTR duplex in Indiana, and I’m looking to develop new skills in order to improve my personal income to help expedite a second rental investment.I am a touring musician, and also have 5+ years of bookkeeping experience for one of my small businesses, and I run the books for my one duplex as well.

If you come across my cut/paste LLC response (as shared in the link above) and have advice on how I can improve it, I'm all ears.  

They really don't have the power or right to place any kind of lien on the property while they simply have it under contract and aren't doing any improvement to the property. 

I have an 800+ credit score and access to over $100k in revolving credit and much more than that in personal loan offers, but currently have less than $10k in cash reserves, which I plan to build back up to $20k in two months.My mom, in her mid-50s, wants to invest in real estate as a means to improve her retirement.

This does not even cover more costs to keep improving and adding to the software.

Have been to Houston in 2013 and from my memory it gave me a similar profiling to Perth, WA very resource centric (mining, oil&gas) next to energy rich region and liked that the city was big yet not maddening as the NY/LA's of the world.

Also, consider tax credits and incentives for energy-efficient upgrades or first-time homebuyer programs that could lower your costs and improve your return on investment.In summary, starting in California with an FHA loan and considering partnerships and LLC structures can set you up well.

Unable to estimate appreciation potential because it’s brand new and no room to add on or make improvements, but over time I do think some appreciation due to prime location.
