Thank You I know for me, it has taken time and focus.

My focus is on providing either turnkey-style space for those interested in temporary, infrequent use or long-term leasing for business folks who require conference room space (or perhaps event space).  

Focus on one real estate strategy only, master it so you can explain the details well.

This can encourage positive word-of-mouth and build goodwill if they’re ever a reference for your property.Ultimately, focus on fairness and clear documentation.

Focus on positioning yourself as a problem-solver with a compelling vision, and don’t hesitate to seek mentorship from experienced developers.

Focus on neighborhoods near employers or schools, and explore slightly outside Austin for more affordable options. 

Maybe your specialty is finding deals and you have another wholesaler that focuses on the dispo side, getting the deal closed. 

Hey Makani, you should check out DSCR loans, which are primarily for investment properties and focus on the property’s income potential rather than your personal income.

If you’re considering other custodians, I recommend focusing on those with a strong reputation for consistent customer service, transparent fees, and ease of account management.

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560 (almost 30% probability of default), little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.
