No need to beat around the bush or sugar coat it.

The good part is we're a more diverse economy than we were back in the '80's, but oil is still the life blood of this state.

Don't rent to "blood relative" family. 

When I wrote a letter stating he has to give me 24 hour notice, we've had bad blood since then.

To me it's like having someone with a cancer and treating it with massive doses of steroids and sugar resulting in giving them diabetes in addition to the cancer ,instead of treating the real problem.

When there is blood in the streets...

Can't get blood out of a turnip.

I met a real state agent that's really good who also happens to flip houses(which i'm not too confortable with...anyway) but she will be looking at properties for us and really norrow it down to the best ones and gives the numbers estimate and roughly how much will it take to rehab and how much she will listed for, and she guarantees that she can sell the property within 2months f being out in the market...so that sounds promissing... she will get 5% of the resell price... but she's really straight forward and doesnt sugar coat things, so thats good.

She designed a number stadiums like the Baltimore Ravens stadium when she was a working stiff at a blood sucking corporate architectural firm.

I will continue to look for good property.My actual target market is Cypress because Cypress is good school area but price is less higher than Katy or Sugar Land.
