Hi Drew, I have been crunching the numbers and running the projections for my grand entrance into REI early next year in Texas, and basically came to a similar conclusion to flip for cash and buy-n-hold for longer term equity buildup.

Here in Grand Prairie (Dallas) if a tenant wants to move and the landlord contacts the HA that the tenant owes back pay rent the HA will notify the tenant to pay otherwise they can't move to a new place.

I just moved from San Francisco to Grand Rapids, MI to buy Rental properties.

we do a lot of infill building.. this only works in HIGHLY desirable areas @Wayne Brooks  as Wayne states not sure were your thinking the value play is here.now there are plenty of folks that buy cheapo lots in FLA like Lehigh acres then sell for a few grand more on contracts those are the land flipping guru's you see that's what they teach.. and there are millions upon millions of lots available for this type of activity generally in FLA  and West Texas  AZ CA and other areas that had massive land speculation booms in the turn of the century.. think Lancaster Palmdale in CA there are million plus platted lots there that get traded around at tax sales every year.to find land with value to builders you need infill in established areas.. close to down towns.. in areas that are regentrifying .. lots that have shadow plats beneath them. or you can split using a lot confirmation technique ( common in Portland)  you need to work areas of Scarcity .. 

Six percent of fifty is only three grand.

We can all set grand goals after listening to a motivational speech or powerful testimony.

I would say about 5-8000 grand a unit.

I'm a CPA, and I am looking for Grand Forks, North Dakota area investors to connect with and build relationships with. 

Overall the house has great bones but it will take a few grand to complete the punch list of items needed to remedy: radon mitigation, surface mold in attic, slight leaks at a few easily accessible spots in the roof, electrical service work.
