@Jay Hinrichs wouldn't eliminating Brokers decrease competition, and access to competitive offerings? 

So I would like to get some help from people who are actually investing.I am aiming for a single family home or multi family home and I am constantly looking at properties around Austin TX.I am looking north of Austin to Dallas and south of Austin to San Antonio.However, Austin is not easy to find an investment property that generates cash flow considering the cost of rehab.Can you give me some advice on my first investment?

Omari if I was you it would be a easy decission to do it in house.

Talk to your agent to get a little more information about this.I agree that if the unit is not permitted to be rented on its own, then it's probably best that you don't rent on any platform illegally.However, if you are able to allow access to the main part of the house, you may be able to rent the space as a room in a home depending on local laws and ordinances.

These easy cosmetic value adds get your rents/cashflow up and create some equity while also attracting the best tenants. 

Keep yours clean, simple, and easy to read without using 30px text or humongous font size.

i didn't even know auctions gave opportunities to actually have access to properties beforehand.Given your line of work, i would say that you are uniquely positioned to work well in the outlined situation.

Does Easy Street fund horizontal development?

For example, it could be very easy and cheap to split up the property into 5 acre parcels or greater.

Excited to connect and have access all the resources that this awesome community has to offer.
