It sounds great, but it's all just words at this point - speaking from the experience as both an operator, broker, as well as someone that has experimented first hand with different tools. 

And after speaking with a lot of folks at BPCON2024 I’m realizing this is a niche that some of you in the community are very good at, but most of you, like me, know this is a need but don’t have a good solution. 

If you speak to a CPA who understands remotely what I mentioned then you're in good hands.

With a team, even if you’re paying salaries or commissions, you could close 25 deals a month.From there, increase your marketing, improve your SEO, and keep spending money to make (far more) than you spend.Keep scaling and tweaking until one day, you realize a steady stream of leads is coming in through your SEO efforts.At that point, you can turn off your paid marketing and enjoy the highest-quality leads for free—without lifting a finger.Let me know if you have any concerns or questions!

The 19134 zip code and other parts of North and West Philly offer properties at very affordable prices, but may have more challenges with tenant quality and vacancy rates.

On average I'm getting a lead for about every 350 texts I send, but results vary depending on the list quality and messaging templates.

I do believe that your HELOC will be a great source of capital to start your first deal but I wouldn't use it as a down payment (Speaking from my own personal experience).

Hey Nicholas, I know we texted the other day but happy to give some feedback here as well.Look at the general condition of the house itself like you would any other property.But in terms of tenant quality, take a look at how they're living.

Schedule a final inspection to ensure quality standards are met.Each of these sections would come with an estimated timeline, budget, and list of materials required, making it easy to track progress and expenses during the project.

@Jessica Swanson, I can't speak to Texas specifically.
