Actually considering if there is a play to build or buy an app.

Start getting to know realtors in that area and give them a Buy Box you're looking for. 

Hi Shea,It is a residential property and, yes, my strategy is buy and hold.

One thing that may work is doing a Subject to Existing Financing deal where you will buy the property from someone but not payoff their loan.

Buy your copy of TurboTax with the modules for the States, and you are set to do this yourselves, without having to pay us.

Investment Info:Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment.

@Tyler Ashworth Did you ever buy any investment properties in Abilene?  

Is it possible to avoid taxes on the gains if I buy another property for $564k ($900k - $336k) and make capital investments of $336k?

You lowered the amount you had/have to buy with your exchange.

There’s a lot of potential there, especially with its population growth and strong rental demand.Since you’re focusing on single family homes and aiming for long-term cash flow, it’s smart to start by clarifying your strategy (fix to rent, buy & hold, BRRRR) to guide your decisions.
