Lots of good info already mentioned here but just to add another hat in the mix I recently purchased 3 turnkey properties each from a different turnkey provider. 1 in Cleveland and 2 in Memphis.

NOD is public record.. one can subscribe to Property Radar and get all this info for a very low monthly fee plus a ton of other add on' like CRM and auto mailers etc..

Thanks for the info!

It could be finding potential buyer contacts and building a database.I guess the KPIs could be similar if he actually wants to be the investor.  

I'd attack the credit report :) 1) lower (pay down) whatever accounts have a high utilization percentage 2) contact each of 3 major consumer credit agencies and get a free report, then dispute every hard inquiry that is *NOT* associated with an open account 3) call the credit cards you already have established and ask for a credit line increase -- often can be done online and they do not verify income, hint hint. 

The property prices are lower compared to other markets, and the rental demand in certain neighborhoods can be pretty strong.Let me know if you need any more info or if you'd want to chat further about this!

After contacting the Railroad Commission, who govern use of natural gas in Texas, I was informed they don’t have guidelines.

@Andrew Strauss thanks for the info!

I’d connect with some local agents and see if they will save your info for next time they come across someone in the scenario and send them your info. 

You gave me the info I wanted to know plus more!
