Network with investors, analyze properties regularly and build a strong team early.Good luck!

For instance, how did the due diligence "come back as clean" and the "leases were solid" if the rent was not paid up to date and paid REGULARLY?  

Good thing is they don't have rules about the interior remodeling (except the regular county permitting process).

I regularly see promotors selling lots in beautiful communities for $40,000-$100,000 in Texas.

A nice but rental quality unit gets 1500-1650 regularly in that area depending on the size and finishes.

Are you doing regular long term rentals there?

What broker would sponsor me considering I'm not intending to become a full time Realtor and give them regular business?
