Have you ever worked with an Independent Agency/Broker?

Of course landlord is not interested nor would ever consider using someone they recommended. 

@Orane JacobsWhen thinking about venturing into a new market for house hacking using a VA Loan, it's important to look at various factors like the cost of housing, how much demand there is for rentals, the job market, economic conditions, how fast the population is growing, what amenities are available, and the resources for managing properties.

Have you ever looked into development in Texas? 

I negotiated a 140k concession on a deal today for my buyers, I think that is by far the most I have ever been able to negotiate on a retail deal.

I have no intentions of quitting my job or shutting down my business, but want to  buy and use properties to help grow my equity and help me develop a 20+ property portfolio, creating a nest egg for 15+ years down the road, when I retire. 

Purchase price: $90,000 Cash invested: $10,000 Sale price: $113,000 New land development project in growing neighborhood.

I had the absolute worst PM ever, so now I am managing on my own.

Good luck I am in Arlington and just starting also so reach out if you ever have any questions about this side of the DFW market.

You have people getting private money at 4%... you have hard money lenders making 15% + 4 pts leading to 20 - 30% returns annually.Are you looking to attract investors who are protecting equity and want a nice solid return... or people who are looking to actively grow their wealth?
