Hello,I have been actively looking to buy a house in Bay Area from last few months and couldn't find anything that suits my taste or budget.

I plan to leave thr home as is no major renos, but would at some point add a bath room in attic area to make a nice mastet suit for value add.

Also, in addition to books and podcasts, and join a few more local REI groups to get a sense of which one(s) suits your needs best!

IMO if your total portfolio LTV is over 75% you're swimming naked because you cannot refi in an emergency.

I love talking real estate and want to be sure you know about out Northshore REIA group that meets the second Tuesday of the month at the Country Inn & Suites @ 6:30 pm behind Chick-fil-a.

If most people are flying to your destination, it's much harder to get 15-30 or more people together, and those larger homes stand less of a chance.While I've done a bit of research in Galveston, definitely not enough to answer your question.Another angle to consider if it's legal from a short-term rental and ordinance perspective, buy a home with a number of large bedrooms, and create exterior doors to each of them, put in a kitchenette with a microwave and mini-fridge, and rent them separately, in particular if most/all of them can have en-suite bathrooms. 

Not without a judgment against the ex.File suit against both, making sure proper service is obtained.

He makes the homes way above average with really nice fixtures, show worthy kitchens and master suites, etc. and he knows so much about all forms of construction that if he hires someone, he knows if they are doing the job right. 

I think I'm going to build the room to suit both purposes and let the tenants decide what to use the room for.
