Hello All....I was wondering about the Texarkana region of Texas for investing in Multifamily property...I don't know the area and I was just wondering what the opinion is of the area....is it a dead zone or does it have potential for some future growth or at the least, a good place to invest for stable cash flow.I spoke with some brokers today and I got two very different viewpoints...one guy flat out said it sucks and my money would be better spent elsewhere and another painted a rosy picture with lots of business and transportation going on in the area...I would love to get the opinion from people here on BP as I value my fellow investors in the area with boots on the ground.I realize its not one of the hotter markets that is in the news all the time...I am looking for a good stable market that isn't dying and has potential for at least some future growth.....thanks for the helpJeff

The numbers seem to work but I'm not familiar with the area.Anything I should know about the area near the Arrott Transportation Center?

@Thomas Gardner that would be ideal other than the fact that transport and setup can be expensive.

The risk of contracting the virus especially is a huge concern for blue collar workers who don’t just have to work in high contact areas, they often have to endure other challenges like long commutes in public transport systems which further enhance the risk.

The Department of Transportation?

At the moment, my career situation does not support completely moving/transitioning from my current industry (transportation), to RE, full time. 

I formed an LLC for my vehicle transportation business.

The reason you see this happening in Pilsen is because it's proximity to Downtown along with plenty of mass transportation available. 

I believe it’s a very smart purchase mainly because potential instant equity, forced future equity and 3 revenue streams support by one purchase. 1) housing 2) transportation 3) food.

Also the fact that you're right here on the Panama Canal makes it easily accessible and affordable to transport goods to any and all international destinations.
