I think my handyman skills would benefit greatly in my desire to be a real estate investor.

So, it's great that you are taking this on, and your rental will be very desirable to folks with dogs.

I desire a three bedroom house so that I can owner occupy the property while renting out the remaining two rooms to tenants.

It is our intention to educate and network our community of current real estate investors and to motivate people interested in becoming real estate investors in the future as a tool to achieve the success they desire.

The property does not need any repairs and is in a desirable neighborhood north of San Antonio, TX.

There are wood floors in the bedroom and living room that I will be refinishing.This unit is rented close to the top of the rent range, although not as high as some due to its location on the edge of a desirable neighborhood and some outdated (although in good condition) finishes such as cabinets and countertops, laminate kitchen floor.

Most of the small firms are family oriented and no desire to bing in someone.  

Of course, there are small things that can make the property much more desirable to potential buyers without spending a fortune.

Are you in a market that was already"hot" and desirable?

My desire is to slowly build wealth through building a track record of credibility with the best players in the market (Be they investors, financiers, Lawyers, CPAs, etc.).I would like to hear from more seasoned investors on the importance of building a network for the long-term.
