And I have blocked or kept this unit because of security deposit since middle of Feb.

The block, and city as a whole.

Quote from @Elizabeth Block: I am interested as well, especially in properties/deals within 50 miles of Las Colinas (Irving area). 

painter is Eastern block owned but all hispanic.

They can’t review the “hot” deal their broker just sent them because they’re too busy categorizing emails in color coded category’; they can’t attend the on line networking session because they need to switch over to a more detailed CRM system; they can’t visit the property going up for auction because their scheduled weekly garage cleaning is running overtime…..The Educator – This person never feels they have enough knowledge, experience or education to properly evaluate an investment.

There is a comp on the block at $4,500 per BP rent estimator but it is larger with 4 bed and 3.5 bath.

Local brokers can give you more color, but I would also be prepared to only get 60% to, maybe, 70% LTV limited by DSCR.  

While I would rent it out as much as possible, husband would want us to block out 2-5 days/month there. 

I'm doing the BRRRR strategy and I just try to ask for her thoughts of colors and lighting and styles of cabinets and countertops.

We had zero regulation over STRs here for a few years when Airbnb first started back in the day, and truthfully it was bad: whole blocks of downtown were basically hotels for a little while there and it started to feel more like a commercial district than residential.
