If you're in the FM area and you own/operate STRs I'd love to connect.   

Honestly if you are doing STR I would suggest doing Austin itself rather than all the way out there in Kyle - maybe a couple of years ago when the prices were through the roof in Austin city itself this would be a good alternative but there is a blip right now where you can get a god entry point in Austin (downtown/east ideally) for STR

The northland MAREI meeting and the main monthly meeting at MAREI have a minimal fee, or for $99 a year you can attend all of them for no extra charge - northland is in person, the main meeting is still online, both are great ways to connect and learn. 

Honestly looking at your situation I'm not sure I would recommend you do the taxes yourself,  change of accounting method (F 3115) isn't easy for someone that hadn't done them before these online software companies make things seem easier than what they are, they are good for less complex situations. 

Maybe we can connect sometime soon and brainstorm some ideas.

I’d encourage you to think outside the box when sourcing off-market properties rather than simply replicating someone else’s strategy—what works for them may not necessarily work for you.Additionally, connecting with real buyers who can close on deals is crucial.

Be honest with them if that is what you are doing though so you don't waste their time if they are busy.

Happy to help in any way I can.Either way, you are in the right place to connect with like minded people! 

Would love to connect and see how we could help each other.
