Once I learned the codes and what I could build and where then it was time to build.

Everyone here needs to understand that when a landlord refuses to keep their property repaired and is in violation of Local County Codes, it makes it tempting to find good rental property to move to, AND to report the property to Code Enforcement, which now I am planning on doing.

Can you help me by pointing me to the neighborhoods or zip codes I should start with first?

Some base their decisions strictly on numbers and do not care about the area, while others are okay with a lower yield but focus on the city and even specific neighborhoods.

I know "change of use" frequently triggers major expenses like seismic retrofits, insulation and fire code updates.   

Risks;  zoning / code enforcement for running a rooming house, more then the county limits on un-related adults in a rental. 

Feel free to DM for a discount code.

I managed a budies house in a strict HOA and he was continuously being sent bills for fines from things like parking on street or leaving trash cans on the street after trash day.I personally will never buy an investment property where there is an HOA.

The Texas Business Code is very specific about the liability protection in a Texas Series LLC.

For the purpose of adopting a Solo 401k Plan, the IRS and tax code care about "trade or business" activity.What is a "trade or business?"
