The property’s potential for strong appreciation, combined with its appeal to high-quality tenants seeking modern living in a historic setting, made it an excellent addition to my portfolio.

Urban areas like Austin and Dallas are appealing for growth potential and job markets, but the suburbs and smaller towns offer more unique opportunities (lower entry costs and a steady flow of families and retirees seeking affordability and space).

Hello everyone,
I’m currently exploring ways to find off-market real estate deals and would love to get some advice from this knowledgeable community.

Build a network with other investors and seek a mentor if possible.

I feel really bad for the LP who simply created the post seeking for help and guidance (and as it turns out will lose their entire investment, which it appears the sponsor did not care to notify them about), only to be met with vindictive attitude vs. one of humility and compassion.

I know that the likelihood of a confrontational tenant seeking us out is low, though this doesn’t mean that I or others should not look for as many avenues as possible to avoid such problems if that is our preference.  

Seek a mentor and join organizations like DCREIA for educational resources.Good luck!

.- What measures can landlords take to ensure protection while renting, and what steps should be considered prior to seeking a tenant?

For investors seeking stability, flexibility, and reduced seasonal impact, these states are ideal.

Our market is extremely competitive for rentals and homes for sale  so I will be putting an ad on Marketplace, seeking an investor to purchase a property and lease to them, as they can pay up to 2500 for a 4 bedroom, and more for higher number of rooms. win/win.
