You may come across one realtor you can connect with and that person can assist you in your acquisition(s).

I want to have one lined up early enough in the process, but not so early that I get texts / emails every week to check out homes when I'm not ready just yet. 6) What kind of programs or options for assistance as a first time homebuyer in TX are available and should I be starting them now (well in advance of any time limit deadlines that could crop up if I wait)? 

After the crash they let the prime money pump it, when that runs out they let the average money pump it, when that runs out they let the subprime money pump it..If you are a prime borrower, great, you get to buy the dip right away..

Thank you for your assistance.

I’ve contacted 4 attorneys that apparently speciality in setting up LLCs for IRAs and they apparently are to busy to assist with my small request.

Have the owners sign the deed over to you in exchange for maybe relocation assistance.

Advice needed ona) Financingb) Stepwise process to get this to from inking the deal on the land, to getting a permit from town, to getting plans drawn and approved to putting in a nice spec for the build.c) Steps to liberate some of the cash/refi at a better rate whilst the house is being marketed.As for me, I think I can pull 100k by liquidating stocks and 200k by borrowing from 401k.

Save cash to buy that $500 for $250.Paying more isn't going to kill you @Will Grabert  It's paying more by borrowing too much. 

Thus, I only look to buy notes whereby I have a high confidence level I can help the borrower with a workout. 

Hey Ahmed Farah if you need any assistance, let me know.
