With your background in architectural design, you're already ahead of the game in understanding spaces and their potential!

IMO killeen is a solid investment. just have to watch which areas you are getting into. there are some pretty rough areas near fort hood but killeen is great because it is close enough to austin and people commute from there to austin as well. with fort cavazos near by and the new samsung plant coming online in taylor, it is a solid choice with steady demand for MF.

Thanks for the replies - going to try a different number first, then I'll be at my property this afternoon to work on my empty unit so I can try knocking on the door myself.locally we have a 5 day notice for non-payment as well, I'm definitely trying to stay ahead of the curve on my local regulations, great call-out!.

When I told him about it, he said he can pay 6 month ahead, even though he was behind on rent already.

First off, it sounds like you trusted your instincts but still went ahead, which shows you’re a decision-maker.

From talking to locals, there's a couple of issues than need to be addressed, some are the non-ecological practices that some of those developers have, unfortunately, our government profits from this investors and allows them to destroy manglers (which are the natural water purifying system of that area) dismantling hectares of mangroves and degraded the habitat of resident and migratory species burying animals alive.There's proof of fecal material floating beneath the city of Tulum, only 20% of the water is sent to the water treatment plant, there's no infrastructure for the exponential growth.The landfills in the middle of the jungle that is leaking hazardous pollutants into the freshwater system and that something that developers won't tell you.I love my country and it would be a disaster for everybody if this place ends up like some other great beaches around the world, that are completely ruined by greedy investors not following the rules.There's no urban or comprehensive master plan, and one of the risks is that Tulum will be like Playa del Carmen is today, overgrown and with environmental devastation.I will advise doing a lot of research before getting something in Tulum, different country, different rules, and practices.

Go ahead and state who you're working with, this sounds eerily similar to something we've heard on this forums over & over.Below is Josh's link. 

And while there are plenty of skeezy homeowners, I know I will pay the bill, unless you go way off budget and we didn't talk about it ahead of time.

Teshaws , go ahead and give me a current contact to communicate with you privately if you need a reminder of your ignorance in business.  

Ahead of Manhatten, LA, San Francisco.
