The city board of adjustment meeting was held today and we presented our case and explained that we made huge investments into the home to remodel and furnish it with the belief that we would be able to operate it as an STR since we had an approved permit.The Board denied my request and did not take any responsibility. 

Here’s how you can stay informed and ensure your rental properties meet all legal requirements.1.

For example in a hot area of Houston I have a 30 unit. 20 of them are in a courtyard and 10 face the street.

It got me thinking:In your opinion, what are the minimum requirements someone should meet before raising money from investors (beyond family and close friends)?

You can also check meetup.com or search Facebook for real estate investment groups, clubs, or meetings in your area.

Must have tools: you need some type of evaluation metric and/or tool that you are comfortable with and are willing to walk about from a deal if it doesn't meet your requirements.also, a deal is a term for a transaction, not to be confused with a "good deal".

There is a REI meet up happening once a month that I go to.

I think they all have fees associated with the account if it doesn't meet the threshold.  

The zoom meetings are a free for all and Jerome relies on his hype communication style to amp people up but there is no content or context to get amped up about.

Any area particularly hot?
