Its a great place for cash flow and depending on your investment strategy there is a very wide range of types of investments.I have been working on the investment side of real estate for several years now and know the city very well when it comes to buy and holds.I own a few myself and have and have wholesaled and worked with a ton of buy and hold investors.You need to be careful of what you are really buy in SA though as what you are experiencing in Austin is happening here as well but mainly on in low-end properties.

What if you go to the seller and ask them what they would want for it CASH and i pay you on the side...

Some of it is already invested, but I would like to get on track in real estate to start generating monthly income on the side in the range of $4000-$5000.

They are red hot right now.  

Thanks everyone, but the renovation part of this is 98% done, with still a little room for improvement... which is my downfall because I keep thinking of new ways to keep pouring money into this thing, and I gotta stop that.I've broken up my story because I have a thousand progress photos.So why don't I continue.....Ah, the photo is right side up.So that chair and the metal desk came with the house.
