I read the beginners guide and started listening to the BP podcasts recently.I have very little knowledge in real estate other than purchasing my own personal property which I live in today and selling a single famly home for an estate.I'm very curious and interested in the BP community, real estate and other investments.

This is not a product type with which I am familiar, so I’m looking for advice on how to value a current opportunity.Let’s start the discussion by first considering a “single-tenant net lease” example … a free-standing CVS/Walgreen’s at a busy intersection.

I have purchased one turnkey single family rental in Alabama.  

I have done a few flips of single family detached in the Denver metro area. 

The LLC owns nothing and really does nothing aside from be a single number, website, address, and name on an office door that any of my tenants can contact.

THe logic is that STRs are a nuisance to the quietness of residential single family neighborhoods.

For me, every single listing on the market is of value - it is either a deal to purchase, a retail ready property that helps you price your flips, or a perfect example of what NOT to do lol (that 300+ DoM property that the owner begrudgingly lowered the price after it sat too long and is now unwanted inventory).

I have 5 properties in the west to northwest area of Houston and not a single one got water in them.

I need to learn about the numbers and the more detailed things which I will do since I will have alot of down time and I listen to the podcast on my 9-10 hour drives every single day.

I'm looking to use my VA loan here in Austin, TX to buy a single family or multi (preferably).
