:) Well, if the planes take off and land from east to west, buying a home that is north or south is not directly in the flight path. 

We live well, have a nice house which I built from the ground up and saved 200k off the top. 

I have run numbers for LTRs on a set of duplexes that seem to cash flow well.

Beyond trying to connect on this forum would recommend look in the BP Meet up section and checking out local DFW FB RE investor Facebook groups as well as Meetup.com and Eventbrite for local events. 

The property jumped another 100k less than a year after the sell as well as rents went up to support what would have been the new monthly debt if I refinanced and held. 

@Jaedon StoutBRRRR Strategy - This works well when buying properties below market value and rehabbing them to increase equity.

As important as due diligence, analysis, knowledge of the property type, track record of the syndicator, correctly predicting economic trends, and timing is, the number 1 way to avoid a devastating loss is NEVER INVEST MORE THAN 10% OF YOUR INVESTABLE ASSETS IN ANY ONE DEAL.  

Because of cost, duplexes are are a better choice and compete well with SFH and or apartments. 4.  

A well-structured deal with a clear exit strategy can be just as valuable as a full rehab.

One of my applicants showed up with little credit but no defaults, no evictions, and only traffic violations and verified income high enough to cover well over 3 times the rent and I accepted the tenant despite there being some signs.He paid the rent in time for the most part until a few weeks ago when he stopped and I could not get ahold of him.
