Quote from @Pat Arneson:Usually, the city website has all the utility companies for the city that you should be contacting.

One has two single-family row homes a bit "over the line" in the Temple area.

It is absolutely needed -its one of the most critical components. 

Many people over the years have passed me up in the number of homes they have either wholesaled or flipped.

But we moved out the low rent tenants and after the rehab we filled all units with market rent tenants.

The reason is the rent-to-price ratio is good so you can cash flow, and most of the West side doesn’t have a Point of sale inspection which is really annoying.

Thanks to everyone here for providing so much knowledge and tips, learning a lot on BP!

Were the tenants brand new during the due diligence period? 

Purchase price: $307,000 Cash invested: $118,000 Purchased in January 2021, we successfully renovated the interior and exterior of this home that resulted in a premier vacation rental property.

Our team redesigned the interior and purchased all furnishings and decor to give a stylish, comfortable environment for guests.
