I have renovated the ohana which we now rent for 1,200.00/month, replaced the windows and trim inside and out, painted the exterior, added landscaping, added a pantry, changed out all the ceiling fans, under cab lighting, added insulation, added solar PV with net meter, now working on the front elevation.

Development is booming and the landscape studded with impactful projects: Apple is building a $1 billion North Austin campus; a multideveloper transit-oriented development is underway near downtown on Lady Bird Lake; the new Dell Medical School recently opened at the University of Texas; and a major airport expansion is underway.

As I stated before I work in the family landscape business and am looking to branch out to get other streams of income so that I can set myself up in the best position for the future.

Upgraded flooring and landscaping Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

If a triplex, here is also where you start making exterior changes, common area improvements, cleanup / landscaping, improved lighting and such.Now if you are not planning to make any changes to rent for at least 6 months, then I would not rock the boat any more than this at this point.

I finally told myself in October that i'm just going to throw myself in and buy a house, and whatever happens happens, I just want to learn and the best way to learn is just by throwing yourself in sometimes, knowing you're going to make some mistakes / have some hard times, but also come out with the knowledge to go into more deals in the future.For my first house with my 0% of experience, I asked my agent to find me properties that fit the following criteria- Under market value- Houses that are livable but need some work, this is so that I can get my feet wet with with redoing walls, hardwood floor, painting, replacing utilities, landscaping, etc, but also not have an issue living there or having people come over.- At least 3 bedrooms and 2 baths - This is so I can rent out the 2 bedrooms and cover most of my mortgage, and gain experience managing tenants.- A place that I'd like to live, near the mountains.- No HOAFrom what I gather from your posts i'd say look into house hacking, it allows you to get a cheaper down payment for a loan since you'll be living on the property, and can get you into the market quicker.
