You have a 1 bedroom so house hacking doesn't really work and most HOAs won't allow for short term rental and in some cases, arguably mid term rentals (I am starting to see no "transient" housing of any kind, so an argument could be made that this applies to mid-term). 

By next Summer and over the next several Summers you should pick different trades...next Summer go to work for an electrician, the next a plumber, the next an AC company, the next a roofer, the next a painter. 

I am a small time STR operator in Wyoming, so my insight might not apply to larger areas, but I find that doing a theme for my STRs seems to get attention, The Rendezvous, The Cache, The Bunkhouse, The Eagle's Nest, The Cozy, etc. 

Comps in the area are all sold for 350-370, but who knows they could have sold it as the listed price but didn't post the real sale value of the house after incentives were applied.

The old saying “it’s a numbers game” real;y applies here.  

These inspections apply to private properties, regardless of whether the tenants receive government assistance or not.

Go to school and finish “ No Quitting” One went to college and graduated, with no debt because they worked all through college and applied to enough scholarships to make your head spin.One left home early and found consistent employment currently a young supervisor( now married with kids)The last one stayed home like first one got a trade in the electrical field (graduated).Then I told them no outside debt, you are getting houses.

If you were in a new construction syndication and got caught with a 300% increase in Lumber costs due to Trump applying Tariffs to Canada for anti dumping, and then Covid shut down both the logging and Lumber Mill industries in Canada I can understand getting nailed. 

And, I don't know TX law, so I'm not sure if there would be any difference as to the specific rules that may be different in TX, but, it's an old law from merry old England that made it's way to the US, so odds are there is some version that would apply to you in TX. 

@Alan AsriantsIf you are occupying your home, your should apply for homestead and save some money on your taxes.
