@John Perkins Help you find lenders that can increase your profitability on your projects and perhaps help you scale!

It’s now estimated that Texas has 31.29 million residents, up from the 2020 count of 29.15 million.But Texas also ranked as the top state in the nation for domestic migration and natural increases over the past year.

My recommendation would be to choose potential markets - in several price points - that have strong rental demand and year-over-year rent increases and that also are in markets that are appreciating. 

If private companies continue to provide the insurance, I suspect we will see further increased premium costs which will need to be reflected in the rents tenants pay (all tenants: LTR, MTR, STR).  

I just bought a lovely 8 unit last April that had been horribly neglected but have turned it around and done some cosmetic renovations and increased rents.

Recognize there are challenges doing BRRRRs since the rate increases that have occurred in the last couple years

I've heard of people doing this, but you need to be rehabbing it enough to make it higher value so ideally you need to be purchasing something that needs some rehab so that you can increase the equity because otherwise you're not gonna have enough equity to pull out

And if rents continue to increase in the area, the cash flow could be closer to $300 per month if I refi in about 2 years.

We decided to do a full rehab to get nearly double the rent ($2900)and increase the ARV to $260k.  

The homeowner collects a NET/NET 5% yield with 1% increases each year in long-term lease by a BBB+ credit rated tenant (similar to Morgan Stanley credit).
