Study the market.

Excited to learn and get insight on investing in a new market.

Long term, the Austin market will do just fine with strong population and job growth.

I'm currently building up capital for future ventures and properties that I find on market, as well as attempting to find the best brokerage where I can work under an individual who is already more established.

From digging into real time market data and calcualting cash flow.. to literally driving for dollars, you want someone with an incredible network of pros who can unearth leads (probate attorneys, divorce attorneys, local fix and flip circles) that might connect you with a ready buyer or flud tenant.

Stay educated on Florida market trends and BRRRR success stories.Good luck!

Not being able to rent out units usually just means the price is too high for the market. 

I'd start with filling out your profile here a bit more- we can't tell what market you are in. 

Not a ton of value-add opportunity, more of a core+ investment in a very small market I'm familiar with - my initial analysis is yielding a 14% IRR & 1.28 EM, so I'm not sure of the attractiveness to investors.

It cost us more money than we would have liked to have spent, but we were able to put a house on the market that we were proud of.
