Erin, I'm in your neighborhood and would like to meet and help you, not trying to sell you anything,,,see my PM to you

My focus is renting out quality affordable homes (to use your terms) in low income neighborhoods (part mission part profit).

My name is Joseph Wu from DFW, currently living in Richardson, TX, where my sister just bought 2 properties this year in the nearby UTD neighborhoods of Reservation and Greenwood Hills, and is looking for a 3rd one!

I located a house that is in a great area and a nice neighborhood where the house next to, and around are fresh and remodeled.

Also, get to KNOW your local market, different neighborhoods, what is listed and selling, and what you get for that price.

I happen to live in the same neighborhood as my rentals so I allow them to drop it in my mailbox and text me afterwards.

Hey everyone,I was driving through my neighborhood today and realized there is a house for rent up the street from me with a phone number to call.

yes, that sounds about right, but in the $100k ARV range I'm finding it tough to find 80% deals.I try to stay in within 10 miles of my house, I avoid any neighborhoods that have a lot of rentals (which is sort of funny), etc.I'm having to look outside of my preferred neighborhoods/school areas (not school districts, but say in Mesquite, there are certain schools that renters prefer, so I really prefer to buy in the areas that qualify for those schools.Erik Drentlaw yes, that's the idea anyway, I haven't actually gotten myself to "pull the trigger" on any of those deals,,I try to follow my business model closely, and this is something that doesn't "fit"

I've been aware of a particular property in my neighborhood for a number of years because I was acquainted with the older couple who lived there.

Initial cash on cash returns here are lower than say the Midwest, but I like my deals and feel good about the two neighborhoods continuing to gentrify and there is quite a bit of value I can add here as well, which I have started to do.
