Hello BP!Newbie investor here from the North Texas area. Haven't done a deal yet but i've been working in Real Estate for about 6+ years assisting different agents/brokers as an admin (listing/marketing coordinator). ...

I agree with @Mike Garland, especially it being a good opportunity for someone to learn.

Originally posted by @Mike Garland:@Tony Castronovo putting together the appraisal package is a good idea.  

@Mike Garland @David Fink Thank you both for the input... i'll keep those boundaries in mind.

Lived in the area my whole life.That means you're talking about Richardson, Addison, Garland, Plano.AREA: all have at least some multi-family homesPRICE: you might find a duplex in Garland for under 200,000 but it will need work.

@Debbie Garland...

@Debbie Garland Since he left his job, Jason can't borrow from the 401k any more (401k loan may only be available if it's with a current employer). 

Thank you @Mike Garland.

Would love to know what groups there are in the DFW area - especially on the east side of Dallas (Mesquite, Garland, Rowlett, Rockwall). 

I'm looking for an investory friendly realtor in the Rowlett, Sachse, Garland area of Texas (East of Dallas).
