While Texas is a non-disclosure state, the appraisal districts are pretty good about capturing values off deeds of trust, etc so expect that number to be higher after the sale unless you bring a lot of cash to the table. 

Good afternoon BP community,I’ve been on BP for a while and love reading your stories, both successful and non-successful.

Reach out to a few and find one who will take you under their wing.If you're feeling altruistic, another way to learn and get construction experience is to volunteer for non-profits like Habitat for Humanity.

So, its a non-threat. 

Texas is a non-disclosure State so sales prices are not readily available through public records.

Many will outright refuse to work with them because of the quality of tenant.After keeping an eye on the market for the past two years, and having lived here, I believe there are still two strong areas (non-Summerlin) in Vegas to still invest in right now.

I work for a company (non RE) where all the employees are remote. 

Maybe look into a private or public reit where your parents don’t have to work as hard in retirement. 

It looks like the answer is no, so I will proceed on this assumption.Secondly, you need to choose between two other goals:minimizing your current taxes orminimizing your future taxesIf you choose (1) - then you're looking to maximize contributions to your non-Roth accounts: SEP-IRA or 401k.

I would expect $1500 for a non-judicial foreclosure in Texas.
