We currently have 10 single family properties in the best school districts and we self manage.

He graduated HS the Covid year which added to the difficulties. 

Also illegal for the entire school year, if the tenant has kids in school. 

I’m back now and looking for some guidance on an idea that caught my attention.An old high school friend of mine has been buying older houses, either renovating or tearing them down and rebuilding, depending on their condition.

These I have found are real, striving parents, working their butts off to provide the best housing and school system for their children.My ethos in this approach is exactly why we at LaPlante refer to them as Residents, as we consider "Tenant and Landlord" to be dated terms and rife with negative emotion.

I know, I get a lot of different kinds of checks because I work with corporations, schools, banks, jobs, etc.

Add to that we have Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry with students (ages vary from 18 to seniors) numbering a few thousand, with no dorm space, and investors have purchased homes and rent room space to them.

Happy New Year.I grew up in Dallas, graduated at Lake Highlands,  and my sister manages a complex in old East Dallas actually.  

After high school, I pursued a career in the military, where I proudly served for seven years.

I would recommend focusing on good school districts where people want to be, which is going to dictate over average price and rent appreciations.
