And I live in Northern Texas, so can't help you with that either, however, I always recommend working with an agent verses a company that finds investment properties just because an agent may work on commission, but they are looking with you in mind, a company is looking to move their own properties, or properties that they have some sort of connection with and you may be passing by a great opportunity next door, but would never know it unless you had a person looking at the whole picture and not just their interest.

All the actual cash-out-the-door type expenses like interest, insurance, property taxes, maintenance, paint and carpet affect both taxable income and cash flow.

But the kicker is that they trashed the apartment, broke into the man's basement storage where he stored a lot of medical equipment, and left the door unlocked and open.

When you always try to take a different route to see a part of the town you have never seen before.When you see a "For Rent" sign and wonder how much they are charging.Bonus points if you pull out your cell phone and call the number immediately to find out.When your in a large city you look at the apartment buildings and try to guesstimate how many doors there are and what the market value would be for that building.And a bonus for dreaming of owning a building that big some day.

Shoot for $100 per door as a minimum.

DO OR DO NOT, THERE IS NO TRY!

Go door knocking2.

How does one find out the address of a house if it's not posted on the mailbox, door, or anywhere else?

I am a Regional Truck Driver while Leslie, my wife, works in the medical field.

They drive around looking for FSBO signs, knock on doors, talk to the owners, take photos, check to see if the house is in a flood zone, pull comps from the Internet, get permit/tax/assessors info and more, and then send me a packet with all the information.
