Any suggestions, advice, or experience you could give me.

You don't need to know everything to get started; you need a foundation to build on, and the rest will come through experience and then refining your education.You can build a basic understanding of investing in 3-6 months.

So many variables can turn a deal sideways from 1 hour to the next - i.e. inspection findings, title issues, contracts, financing issues, taxes, dept. of buildings/local municipalities, etc.I'm glad to hear you made it through the challenges, and it sounds like you'll be able to leverage this experience as you grow your portfolio.All the best to you along your journey!

Would love to connect with anyone that has a lot of experience with how to navigate these foundation issues and how you succesfully invest in DFW real estate depsite this issue 

(that is, assuming you've hired an agent with experience, market knowledge, and the wisdom to be able to guide you to what you're looking for). 

If you’re open to learning more, I’m happy to share resources or insights from my own investing experience there.

I have an idea of an initial investment and returns I would like to hit, but would love to speak with those of actual experience to see if my numbers are realistic.

Glad to share my experience and information if anyone is interested. 

You save money, you get experience, and then you buy your own in a year.

As I have noted in another thread, the number of individuals who post on BP about the Huntsville market that have zero experience investing or managing properties here has accelerated recently for unclear reasons.
