You would ideally want to buy in the downmarket for below market price (around this time of the year since its more of a buyers market) and then sell in spring when values are going to be increased and also have a sellers market (you could sell for above market price).

Overall, I’d love advice on the ideal timeline for finding team members—like a general contractor and property manager—for an out-of-state investment. 

I've seen a few different partnership structures, but what do you see as ideal?

All of this needs to align with a motivated seller's ideal image of their perfect cash buyer.Let me explain:When you do a Google search, let’s say for a contractor, you already know what you're looking for, correct?

You need to expect some years where the numbers won't be ideal until the asset stabilizes.

Partner Driven saw Kipling St as an ideal opportunity for a rapid return with minimal holding.

That can work for a lifestyle buyer but isn't ideal for an investor.

Honestly if you are doing STR I would suggest doing Austin itself rather than all the way out there in Kyle - maybe a couple of years ago when the prices were through the roof in Austin city itself this would be a good alternative but there is a blip right now where you can get a god entry point in Austin (downtown/east ideally) for STR

While it's not idealic for us to be there, it's needed, if we can be.

This surge in tourism and job creation makes now an ideal time to capitalize on the rising demand for both long- and short-term rentals.
