Hi @Rene Hosman -In a nutshell, I find motivated sellers and tenants with damaged credit (or ones without a large enough down payment) and work to put the tenants in the seller's house with an option to buy.

So I suggest really being clear about the "why" and the "what to expect" to keep these inevitabilities in perspective. 

Welcome to BP and investing in Dallas.Plenty of opportunity in DFW area.We must be meetup central. 

Welcome to BP.

@Tanarat Bunchom Thanks i think that will be the route I go, A local bank in the area.

Last night, I heard an inspiring story about a mom who brought her young kids along for a 45-minute drive to tour an investment property.

Thank you for this very clear solution, Derek.  

This is a great place to learn and to connect with people so take advantage of all the great resources.
