I had no idea you could buy in those tracts for that price.

We find this allows us to better tract the state of each property and the quality of work ... in one case a tenant wanted to upgrade the kitchen faucet and she paid for both the new faucet and our handyman to install it.Similar to the annual inspection indicated by Rob K, we reserve the right to inspect our properties once per quarter.

Great site - plenty to digest.

@Mike Baker Do digest the warnings from @David Krulac and @Leon D. , but a student rooming house can be a very profitable venture.

Here in Austin for a tract home in a newer subdivision under 250k or so the standard would be to have a recycling vent hood for a free standing range.

There are settings in your account profile that control how notifications are mailed, including getting a "digest-like" bundle.

Dave, thanks for the detailed reply, took me a few days to digest it :) I wish the numbers you used in your example were for my property but you flipped the land/improvements value.

Already read the Beginner's and will do so again (so much real content in so few words takes a bit to digest it all).J Martin - I was supposed to go to a meet up a few weeks ago, but chickened out.

I have a 4.94 acre tract of land that I think would be a good location for a small apartment project.

Many of them gobbled up these "inexpensive houses in these tracts" I know there are many areas in the country similar to this.
