Getting the information takes time and experience but once you have it you'll be light years ahead of others who are just starting out. 

I’m also based here and have experience with short-term rentals, property management, and work with investors like yourself.

Some people need 2% above the borrowing cost (8% cost of hELOC you gotta then make 10% + etc) and others will want to double their cost of capital or 200% so it depends.Everyone's going to give you their anecdotal experience or what their preferences are so its good to hear it all and determine your own.

Hi everyone, Hoping to connect with someone who has experience renting to or operating residential care facilities. 

It’s great that you’re looking to connect with local investors—it’s always helpful to learn from others’ experiences as you get started.As someone new to investing, one thing to consider is not limiting yourself to your immediate area.

In my experience, finding cash-flowing deals on-market can be challenging here (1% rule can be hard to find) but not impossible.

I am single and 42 and doing this all on my own... no one in my family has any experience in the investing side of things, so I am truly starting from scratch.As of April 2025, I will be moving to the Charlotte area (along with my two pups) and putting a renter in my Austin house. 

I have lots of experience in all types of single-family investing, small partnerships in multifamily and commercial, and a vast knowledge of construction.

Over time, rents may increase, improving your cash flow, and you’ll gain equity and valuable experience managing tenants and property operations.
