I mean, Texas is still a great state because of the amount of jobs, the pay that comes with those jobs, and the cost of housing here as opposed to other places around the country.However, that key word "affordable" actually has a definition to it - and that's 30% of the income shouldn't go towards housing. 

But it will not all go away. 

I'm going to do some research on the meetups in the area and will check them out.

Might make sense to have a in depth conversation with a Banker to run the numbers on a Fannie Mae 5% down versus an FHA 3.5% with the higher MIP.

You'd need to call the local township which I would recommend doing for any LTBH.

I’m curious to know what kind of discounts did you get?

It's a combo of low housing supply, higher interest rates vs. seller expectation, and a poor economic outlook for the country.As an investor with a few rentals it's like like the parking brake is stuck on.

You'd probably need to talk to a contractor and the City. 

You need to rewrite the entire policy.If it was insured as a rental under your personal name, then transferred to an LLC, the insurance carrier would pay covered claims.*** Please note, the claim check would be made out to the Named Insured (your personal name), not the LLC.  

Yes to all of it.Definitely stay there a few days to find things your cleaners aren't going to notice.You need to create the 5 star experience from the beginning.
