There are many new developments going up but traffic in some areas are horrific, especially at peak. 

I recommend familiarizing yourself with your local landlord and tenant laws, while also developing your own "screening criteria."

Over time, we have developed systems to handle these situations as effectively as possible.

Since you are living in the property, you probably have developed relationships with an electrician, a plumber, and a general handyman, if you haven't reach out and meet a few now, while you are in the home, so that you can easily make a call or two when it will be necessary.

If there is no obvious reason, we know the staff still sometimes can develop a superstition around that unit. 

However, you have to invest in specific communities where they are encouraging development.

Not sure if hard money would be the correct route to go for this one or notHey @Scott Allen I generally run the initial underwriting to minimize the developer's equity (@Shayan Sameer) based on the max LTV % or LTARV % that the handful of HMLs that quote me on my deals.

Many Texas cities are incentivizing developers to build affordable housing units, but challenges remain around keeping these homes accessible long-term.

Managing 17 shopping centers and selecting sites for new developments is no small feat—kudos to you!

I don't have personal experience with it, but when the app was first developed, I contacted the developer and put the app through a fairly robust test usage to see if it's something I would want to recommend to my clients (I'm a CPA).I think the app is great for its intended purpose and I do recommend it to my clients now (and have for about 18 months now).
