cant remember the cross st.. 

This house is actually just on the KS side of the border.

Since you have a lease through June and its a single family home, chances are it wouldnt sell for what you want, so cross that off. 

In my opinion, the most strategic places to target within these zones is where crime is lowest and where the zones border other areas that are undergoing appreciation in value.

They would probably be willing to cross collateralize the existing properties for the down payment on the new property (or you could just re-fi though I bet that would cost more).

As I begin my real estate investing journey I am constantly looking for ways to mitigate risks associated with buying rental properties.One thought that crossed my mind was, "Does insurance cover the costs of repairing a house after a tenant has destroyed it?".

The likelihood that your installer went to a subway station where the tiles were ran vertically and then that same person ended up installing your tile is a massive statistical outlier bordering on impossibility.

I'm pretty sure I should be ok then, fingers crossed

I have asked my CPA and to expedite the process/cross check hoping some of us who have already done this could share their experiences 1)  What is OZ and does it fit into my investment goal 2) Where i can invest and potential investment categories (SFR/Land/MFR/Comm/Biz) and how to fit in (syndication/self)3) Cost of transaction (How to start a Qualified Opportunity Fund and How to maintain/Cost of doing so)Video below is what i found very comprehensive/informative and covers #1 and 2 above.https://www.youtube.com/watch?

However houston has so many sub markets you can cross a street and go from a buyers to  a sellers market.Buyers:One thing we watch is our margin and the prices that investors want to pay for properties.
