I mean, Texas is still a great state because of the amount of jobs, the pay that comes with those jobs, and the cost of housing here as opposed to other places around the country.However, that key word "affordable" actually has a definition to it - and that's 30% of the income shouldn't go towards housing. 

Although my spare time to complete such projects follows seasonal work highs and lows, it would be smart for any type deal I consider to involve adding value myself to the property.With at least 100k (possibly up to 140k) of equity in our home, I have done a fair amount of research in HELOCs and refi.

The company offers promissory notes worth $50k, $100k, and $200k+, with annual interest rates ranging between 12% and 16.7% depending on the investment amount.

Hello,I have a potential tenant that is part of a Community Living Program and I am looking for other peoples experiences dealing with these types of tenants.So the tenant had a traumatic injury and now their insurance pays out a set amount each month to cover their living expenses.

A HELOC gives you flexibility since you can draw as needed and only pay interest on the amount you use, which might be useful if you’re not sure exactly how much you’ll need upfront.That said, it’s important to compare the interest rates between a HELOC and your expected returns in the stock market—if you’re making more in your investments than you’d pay in interest, it could be a good play. 

With the amount I make currently, I am able to FHA a house by the 3/4th month of the next fiscal year.
