With major companies expanding in Texas, demand for housing remains high, driving faster appreciation.

Even if it's a total rehab if the land bank has a property in an area where the arv's are substantially high wouldn't that be a good deal or a promising neighborhood for buy and hold.

For almost $100k a lot you want a pretty high NOI to make sense of it, like over $300k IMO I agree.

There's countless high DOM every time I'm running comps.

The rental market demand is still extremely high and there are a lot of value add opportunities, you just have to be willing to put in the work.

Yes - and even when its out there its typically impossible to qualify (need high rate and high DSCR and typically would have to qualify as a LTR - so almost a unicorn or in a really bad market)

This seems to follow the general overall trend of lower cost areas winning at the expense of those with a high costs of living.

I would look FAR AND WIDE for someone to do an investment property HELOC -OR- go to a bunch of banks and CUs (including who you bank with now) to find someone to provide an unsecured (or secured if you have other collateral) LOC to get rid of the high int debt.

If AYPO isn’t engaging, consider switching to AceableAgent or Champions School of Real Estate—both are highly rated in Texas for interactive content and exam prep.

If Airbnb is your best option, choose a location with high occupancy rates and optimize pricing with dynamic tools like PriceLabs.
