I didn't mention numbers on purpose, because at the moment I'm mainly seeking your opinions about my strategy and general approach to this kind of project, meaning whether I'm living in la-la-land or am rooted in reality.

I haven't considered investing outside of the UK at this moment in time.

You also might make some useful connections for buying supplies from HfH's ReStore in the future.I don't have any DIY projects at the moment, but I'll keep you in mind if a good learning opportunity for you comes along.

Hyper focus on one area and get to know as many people there.The reality of "off market" deals are not as beautiful as they sound.

Most of these syndication, are typically promoting "the STR market" rather than their actual track record.The moment I clicked "View more details" of their holding , I can see their future booking.My respond was ............ nahhhh, my STR is performing way better for them.You could forecast their revenue by checking future booking.

There is a beautiful style fan that is black and has gorgeous wooden polished fins that would look stunning there!  

My plan at the moment is to live at uncles house to save money, finalize things I need to do in my location and find an apartment that has a short term lease of 6 months in Dallas.

They may also not be looking at this exact moment but you can ask them that. 

Numbers probably pencil beautifully, but there's a reason why. 5th ward was horrible back in the day, got better a bit, but now it's trending back to some of the worst crime. 5th ward is also a cancer cluster, not sure if you are aware of that.

Most DSCR products at the moment have a 6 month seasoning period.
