@Chris Reyes @Abby Weinstock gave you some good ones; I would ask if they will be your guard dog in the event of an audit.

Google the terms real estate bird dog, real estate investor, driving for dollars, and add the word gig or job after each of those terms.

At that same time, a single-family home down the street was sorta up for sale (I knew the owners from walking the dogs), off-market, and was below market value.

The National Bureau of Economic Research classifies a recession as “a period of declining economic performance across an entire economy that lasts for several months.”The residuals of lost jobs, unemployment, and consumer behavior caused by COVID-19 and subsequent “lockdowns” are still being felt across the U.S. — with numbers in April 2020 reflecting largest declines.During this month we saw both job loss claims and unemployment rates — 13.5% and 14.5% respectively — the highest since the 1929 Great Depression. (2)For recent contrast, the peak of the 2007 Great Recession saw job loss and unemployment rates at 6.5% and close to 10% — that’s a difference of 7% and nearly 4% and with a population of nearly 330 million those are big numbers.We are also seeing signs of a recovery taking shape and forming into what economists call a “K-Shaped Recovery”.This article aims to clarify the type of Recovery we find ourselves in, identify who has been most affected, how these changes reflect in the Austin Real Estate market, and review what key economic indicators to watch in Austin and Texas.Why Does It Form a "K"?

I will likely buy in the area sooner rather than later but would like get a feel for the area before I do so and I'm also on a bit of a time crunch.Its just myself and my dog so a 1-2 Bedroom Unit/House for rent will do fine.

@Anthony SimboliLook for the “Dogs of the MLS”.

While many people are good we do require to meet the dog to observe if the owner actually has control of the dog or the dog runs wild. 

My bird dog tried to negotiate the price and the seller wouldn’t budge with me.

Engaged with two kids and a dog.

I am willing to work with them, but am fortunate since we are NOT over-leveraged.If you follow these posts with guys wanting to buy stuff for nothing-down, those are usually the types that make life miserable for good tenants since dollars drive them.However, I get a bad tenant and I can return the favor.Anyways, for your cynical self, I guess I'd like to make society better by rewarding (and hopefully encouraging) good behaviors.
