Figure out ways to enforce rules to protect yourself and the other renters.

Additionally, the price point is still cheap enough to find the 1% rule and positive cash flow and it's super landlord friendly (so you will never have to go through a 12 month eviction or anything close to that!).

G'Day Alejandro,As a few have already mentioned, take a peak at Toledo also.In my opinion lower potential for long term appreciation but solid/"boring" cashflow.I prefer my portfolio to be "boring" but cashflowing lolLow entry points (Sub $100,000), high rents (Above the 1% rule).Blue collar working class decent folks that will stay and pay.Depending on the area but no derelict homes, yards well kept, cars with wheels and all tenants are employed.Plus, all are sophisticated enough to pay rent online so property management doesn't have to collect rents with bullet proof vests and shot guns lolI'm bias toward Toledo but it's worth considering.Wishing you much success

To guarantee compliance, also acquaint yourself with zoning rules and municipal restrictions.2.

Depends on the town’s rules, though, so check that first.Renovation Loophole: Some places let you raise rents or get out of rent control if you do big renovations.

I do BRRRRs mostly and still can hit what some seem to think is hard to find—the old 1% rule. 

We pulled every trick in the book, and the odor remains.Another issue is that when tenants violate one rule, they tend to violate more.

The key with any partnership is well defined entrance and exit rules. 

Asking in the correct forum will get a better response.Read the RULES!

Texas does have specific rules regarding home equity loans and cash-out refinancing (often referred to as "Texas Equity Section 50(a)(6)"), but these don’t prohibit homeowners from using funds for investment properties.
