Plano is a major job market to the South.

We decided to outsource major tasks such as septic installation, plumbing, heating, and carpentry, while handling smaller projects ourselves—a decision that proved beneficial.

For example, I have a subject property that has 1682 SF on the main floor and 810 SF of finished basement (the majority of which is about 8 feet in height with the exception of some bulkheads to hide the mechanicals) and 271 of semi-finished basement that is a utility room basically (washer/dryer, freezer, hot water heater, furnace, some storage).

We don't want to bring on every owner or every property unless they fit within our target market, so, I do the far majority of the sales - this is our check and balance.

The problem is the buildings are in major need of repair...and because of this, rents are one of the lowest in town. 

Reduce the federal budget deficit to 3% of GDP, achieve real GDP growth of 3%, and increase U.S. oil production by 3 million barrels a day by 2028.For real estate investors, these plans could mean major changes—and opportunities.
