You have historical growth right here and great markets to choose from. 

Great job on deciding that, it's not easy but fun (sometimes haha) and rewarding.Can you tell us what you've already decided to do (what method did you choose) or if you need any help with resources.Feel free to DM me with any question that you have, we have all been newbies once:)@Louisa Davis feel free to DM me too if you need any help:)

Whoever you choose, interview them and make sure they have your best interests in mind.

This is a problem because in working with traditional renters, the process to identify and qualify a tenant can be fairly rapid, and if the property is well priced for the market, the landlord may have a surplus of tenants to choose from.

There is an affordable 7 day introduction and then a VERY pricey 16 week mentorship if you choose to sign up.

At the end of the day, I find it better to be in a position where I can hold someone accountable for breaking my stuff than being a middle man between two tenants fighting over what one tenant did to another's stuff in the common area.This strategy is lucrative though, and I have seen many investors choose that method where I am based out of in San Diego.

You either source deals nationally and when one looks good then you research the market to see if you want to own there or you research markets and choose the ones you like and farm those markets.

Hard to tell at this point.Why are you choosing STR's vs. other methods? 

@Pam McGeheeLLC's in Texas are required to file a Franchise Tax Return with Texas - Make sure that the professional you choose understands that.best of luck.

We get to choose what role we play (hero, villain or victim... thanks David Greene) and we get to choose who plays the other 2.
