From quick calculations in the South Houston area and other standard numbers (8% vacancy, 4.5 interest and 25% down, 10% maint), I'm guessing you should be cash flowing at 300 per month as long as you do your own property management and control maintenance costs. 

I would not buy them as a package..because  you will then be subject to rent control.

Since I was 17 I wanted to learn about investing in real estate but the fear of losing money took control of me.

I recently moved to Eastern Indiana with my wife to live close to her parents and help them out with some properties that they own.

My parents use Ron Evans for some of their rentals bc USAA dropped them after numerous claims. https://www.farmersagent.com/revans1?

The difficulty (but fortunately the one you as the broker or investor have control over) is the location of the new property.  

I don't have any personal experience in investing however my parents have been investing for 30 plus years and currently have 12 rental properties.  

I always struggle when I consider partnering, knowing how badly it can go, and my need to be in control of my own destiny.Since going it alone doesn't scale, how will you stretch your business beyond the limits that one person and 24 hours a day put on you?

Remember you don't have to own a property to control it.Download BP’s newest book here some good due diligence in Chapter 10.
