For example, look into the taxes and the status of tax appeals for the last few years.  

And, I guess for  @Brian Gibbons it varies.I realize that you can write it up either way - just wondering how each of you handled it.Obviously, a credit towards the down payment makes it more appealing to a buyer, but it does affect the seller's bottom line. 

But it may be easier and more appealing to just include it in your rent.

The 5 days isfor the period to appeal which is required by Texas law. 

@Joe Gore If this is the same judge you said can just kick a tenant out during an eviction and does not have to respect the appeal period which is mandated by state law I cannot wait for the answer !

We plan on renting them all through self-manage long distance when we move from our current duty station.We buy class A properties that appeal to higher enlisted/officers.

Being that you have 100-120k in wealth, I would try to invest in properties that are in good areas and have high curb appeal.

Wholesaling real estate is very appealing to me so that is where I want to start and I am currently searching out my first deal.

Seems like you are further ahead then I am but your current properties sound very appealing!

I like the idea of buy and hold, probably because the idea of eventually having a "salary replacement" in the form of rental income streams is appealing.
