Congrats on making such a bold decision!

High taxes are a big red flag to me, simply because they don't go away - ever.

Maybe more if the market continues to be red hot in this area (and the comps continue to rise).There's really no room for a patio.

If you want money people, you are networking in the wrong places with RE types, they know the game, what you need are private investors that you can inform, so long as you have the necessay knowledge.Civic organizations, the Red Cross, Literacy Council, Hospital Volunteers, Friends of the Library, Church groups, etc. are things the retirees get involved with doing community service.

The market in Austin right now is red-hot.

Good to hear from you – thank you for the response and let me clarify per your comments:1)Comments – thank you for summary(s) in bold; clear and concise.2)You are interpreting correctly – I guess I want my cake/eat it too.

I painted the entire outside (took it outside) and it has red fingernails. karen's right about them being deep.ha, ha about my pic . . . i'm going to look for a better one.

It raises red flags in my mind to enter into a lease with a tenant that is starting out on the wrong foot.

Start with the rental that's in the red and work from there.

My "hold deposit" form state multiple times in large, bold letters the money is non refundable.
