yes, you can be successful in any of them, but only if you have a team / network. 

Would appreciate advice and even offers for partnership in this project maybe from someone experienced.

I'm familiar with Jeff and the C2C team (i've heard great things) and work primarily with Fernandos team who I love.Right now - all of the padsplit loans I am working on for my clients are underwritten based off long term rental rates.

Is anyone else in climate impacted areas experiencing a similar question of whether to get out?

Some will even allow you to hire their maintenance teams on an as-needed basis.TaskRabbit & Thumbtack – While hit-or-miss, these can be useful for small jobs when in a pinch.Additional Considerations for Remote Management:Emergency Plan – Have a go-to person (trusted neighbor, friend, or even a tenant) who can physically check on things in case of an urgent issue.Lease Clauses – Since you’ll be remote, make sure your leases clarify expectations for minor maintenance responsibilities (e.g., tenants handling small fixes like unclogging drains).Vendor Relationships – Set up accounts with appliance repair services, locksmiths, and other key tradespeople so they’re familiar with your properties.Tenant Selection & Retention – With your solid rental history and below-market rents, you’re in a great position to minimize turnover, which is key for remote management.Sell or Hold?

To reevaluate, my team and I can provide further insights and resources if you're interested in implementing a creative investment strategy.

Your focus on the Dallas market and Fix and Flip projects sounds solid, especially with the DIY approach and having an interior designer on your team. 

We are seeking joint venture opportunities with experienced developers who can see the value in this project and help us navigate these challenging times.As partners based in NYC, this venture was beyond our usual real estate development experience.

I'm definitely gonna consult an attorney experienced in evictions.

Never fully trust anyone that isn't willing to share the negative aspects of all this.As I'm sure you've experienced, this can be a very rewarding path to take and depending on your grit and determination, overcoming all the pitfalls are well worth the effort.Cheers and drive safe!
