@Kegan SchollFrom my experience, if you're a 22-year-old house hacker, Texas and similar markets can be great for room rentals thanks to population growth, strong demand, and tourism.

@Dave Foster is a great resource on 1031 exchanges. 

Most duplex properties are not in HOAs and usually in a renters street; lawns don't necessarily look great.  

We all hear great advice on the podcasts but until you go through the process it is hard to know what to do. 

Would be great to have more to compare with what I already have quotes from. 

It’s great to see your enthusiasm and commitment to learning wholesaling.

The meters are read electronically with 3g and you get great reporting in their water scope platform.

This vary heavily town to town. 20% down is great if buying strictly as investment but if you have a way of owner occupying I would explore that route and apply the 20% down to increasing value of property and instead using low money down loan. 

I purchased both as a package and for the next six years enjoyed great cash flow as I paid the tax on the house lot annually at about half of what it should have been and neglected to pay anything on the tennis court lot.  

When I say fearful, I should say I've never been threatened, except for threat of lawsuit, which, scares me... and it's hard because I truly feel like the property is great and that I'm doing OK on my promises.
