As someone who works in the DFW area, I know firsthand how the right location in Texas can make a huge difference in your success.

With both land trusts, we were denied bank accounts at almost every bank we tried, Seacoast Bank being the only one who'd touch it. 

Can you put some reserves into a "lock box" type account that is your money but locked at escrow for up to a period of time.  

Every 1077 appraisal that my clients have received only accounts for traditional rentals/leased comparables in the area.

I've been working with job titles like construction project manager, who doesn't know a lot about construction but coordinates architects, engineers, GCs etc, the VP of RE management, who also does not know a lot about construction but oversees site selection, lease negotiations, property management, RE accounting who writes my checks and does annual CAM audits, and other jobs like that.

We have consulted with our accountant and got all the scoop on what needs to be done.

If you have 100k invested in a property but you're only cash flowing $200 a month, it might make more sense to sell and reinvest into another property or simply put the 100k in a high yield saving account at this point in time.  

I am trying my best to take everything into account, but there is no doubt things I don't know.

Definitely appreciated.I have been to quite a few of these auctions and seen first hand how competitive things can get. 

You are right, I should have accounted for that.
