Exploring the BRRRR strategy locally in DFW could also be a smart way to start scaling your portfolio

Connecting with local investors can give you insights you won’t get from books or YouTube.

Hi Meghan,Curious why you would choose DFW instead of Memphis to get started on your portfolio, especially if you are local.  

Reach out to a LOCAL property manager that knows the rental market BEFORE you go under contract! 

These can provide good cash flow and are easier to manage than larger commercial properties, especially when you're just starting out.Also, when I was starting, I found local meetups super helpful.

I work with both local and out-of-state investors, as well as residential sellers, and I offer staging services to maximize showings and listing photos.

The wife had a local business and the husband had a good job.

You picked a great community to join.. have you checked out local comps to gauge the market vibe yet?

Maybe network with local hunting ranches see if you could find an investor to help manage the property, the wildlife, advertising and lodging. 

To invest out of state successfully, focus on building a strong local team (agent, PM, contractors), automating deal analysis, and using contingencies to protect yourself.
