I just bought a house that I could afford, did what I could to create equity and tried to repeat that process when I had an opportunity.

How can I afford to buy a bigger house while also renting out my current house?

Simple Truths.But you can make a ton of money, if you do it correctly.Why doesn't McDonalds sell T-bone steaks?

High property prices mean fewer people can afford to buy, so more people rent.

Most people cant afford that alone which means a syndicate or getting PMLs involved and doing the synd yourself. there's nothing wrong with starting with some smaller properties.

Texas boasts affordability and business-friendly policies, but lacks some cultural amenities.It depends on your priorities!

Here are a few things that I like about the neighborhoods in Indy compared to other states: high rent-to-home-value ratio, consistent and gradual city development, relatively low property tax and insurance cost, affordable renovation service cost.From my experience, it's possible to find deals that meet 1% rule if you invest in *turn-key* duplex or SFH here, but they are harder to find, and could potentially slow down you from scaling up.

Plenty of people in California look for more affordable opportnities out of state, so property management becomes key.

You can try and fight it but does not mean you will be successfulI would also be curious to see what your property insurance looks likeFor me this is just another example that home prices are gonna eventually have to soften as between taxes, insurance and Interest rates home affordability is very challenging
