Hey everyone,New to the forum, though I've been trying to get educated on real estate investment for a little while now.I've been living in the North DFW area, more specifically Coppell, for a couple years now.I'm getting about ready to make the jump towards my first investment property.I guess I was just hoping to maybe network with local investors to get some feedback on my current thought process.Not really looking for a BRRR, though I'm not 100% against it either.As of now, plan looks like:$250k SFH around Coppell / Southlake /Flower Mound / Grapevine (keeping an eye on Lewisville / The Colony / Roanoke as well).Really appreciate all the available resources on here.Amazingly helpful.Stay safeManu

Eventually they realized that although highly practical, it was also highly confusing (and boring) to have both a 1st St. and a 1st Ave, a 2nd St. and a 2nd Ave, etc, that all intersect each other, so they switched all the avenues to nature-related names (mostly trees, birds and flowers but also some scientists and wealthy people's names peppered in like Carnegie, Curie and Tesla).

You send flowers to the next of kin and call it a day.

Then I would trim the bushes, clean up the beds, add mulch and some flowers for color.

I can be hard headed, and by being nice and covering it with flowers may not get a point across.  

I look for products that are safe to use around vegetables and flowers.

Trying to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear is difficult, time consuming, has unknown results and just doesn't merit attention.

If not, the brick looks good as is, just looks a little dark, but maybe some bright colored roses or other flowers could help. 

It is not all rainbows and flowers.
