Hi all, my husband and I are trying to keep investing in Santa Barbara (which is kind of funny, considering it feels impossible) after having purchased a condo in 2020 and a single family home that became our primary residence in 2021.

My family and I are looking to move between January- April of 2025 and we bought our current house pre 2020 so we have a large chunk of money in equity, we really have 3 options on our plate.

All of the info on these sites originates from the MLS systems that NAR controls.

Unfortunately, these programs aren't transferrable and are not offered to DIY landlords:(All in all, this PMC gives our entire industry a bad name because they didn't have you sign a Placement Only contract.

We don’t have much cash on hand to buy and fix up our next property.

Since you are in Dallas, TX you can go on the Colling County Clerks's web site and get access to all the foreclosure listings every month. 

I'm only here for the next 1 to 1 1/2 years; until we move on to our next investment asset and life style. 

Our goal as a family is to move outside the US in the next 3-4 years and live half way around the world for the foreseeable future (5+ years). 

And of course, get some healthy cash flow and build our financial wealth!

Since you have me on a rant now: the Great Lakes region is considered a climate heaven: our winters are getting milder, our summers are awesome, we have not hurricanes, fires, earthquakes or other recurring disasters.
