Hello all,Im going to be in town on December 2nd where I plan to meet with an agent at 10am in St.

Some relevant financials are below...any help from the crowd would be appreciated as if like to explore this and do a 1031 in two years.Current rent - $850 Current property value - $75kishNo current mortgage Located outside Houston and appreciating at around 4% a year If tenant moves I'd do maybe $20k in renovations to update kitchen, floorplan and exterior siding but house is functional

Then, depending on the town, county, etc, the millage rates will apply and further effect the bill.

Personally, I would work towards BRRRRs - you can get them in your market or out of town.

I grew up in a small town (NorCal), learned a strong work ethic being raised on a family farm and worked my way thru college doing construction work: commercial and residential plumbing primarily.  

Certain realtors will specialise in specific parts of town.

But I moved away from DFW and my supply is nonexistent in small town USA now.

I also don't know what town is good for looking for deals and good tenants.

., I'm out of town for the next few weeks, but I'll be back at the end of November.

Almost all rental properties in town at owned by 3 or 4 people and they view anyone new to the game as competition, so I am here to connect with other investors.
