I am a wholesaler looking to also break into house hacking, brrrr strategy, and eventually fix and flips.I am in west TX areaWhere in Tx are you currently and what strategies do you employ? 

He'll still be renting - just from you instead of others, and at all the costs to you that you have enumerated.Your son doesn't "need" to buy a house.  

They have a good set of advertisements that focus on their whole house strategy which is good IMHO.We are running about 50/50 on bookings for 2025 right now.

I am only buy and hold and am up to 32 houses.

@Jahniya Butlercan you start with a house hack instead? 

But, these broad market studies are so large, they are almost meaningless, in the real world.Between glut of new supply in many "hot" markets coming online, a continually softening economic outlook, inflation over last couple years making day to day items feel cost prohibitive, many average renters are strapped and seeking lower cost housing.  

Looking at purchasing small 3 BR 1 BA house.

First when I wanted to create a fund to buy court house steps..

They will find a first time home buyer that will be happy to pay close to what the neighbor's house (in great condition) is worth.

They'll want all the money spent on the main house, lenders kind of ignore ADUs it's weird.
