-If/when there are issues go out of your way to fix.

Invest that $$$ and wait until you settle down somewhere and buy a primary (multi-family unit, or SFH). 

That's why we love the sector - Average rent/sf for Storage is $1.12, and Average Rent for Multi-family is $1.01.

@William StricklandCalculate deals you can use a simple calculator, the issue is typically never the calculator but the data that is input into the calculatorGarbage in = garbage out and this is where experience and knowledge come into play.

My former partner and I worked as general contractors / developers on new construction SFHs and small multi units (3-4 flats) for the last 3.5 years.

Specifically, really steep roads  will interfere with your Winter-season rentals and can even be an issue in the Autumn with the rains and leaves.

Collin County seems to be over price, the same than Denton County, though you could find some deals there is always a challenge to find the right one.One thing to take in mind is the maintenance cost, Fort Worth has older houses that will cause issues on the maintenance, if you are looking low maintenance you will need to look a few and identify how you fell comfortable.

That will KILL your contact rate in its tracks, I run a call center for Real Estate so deal with these issues all the time.

Investment Info:Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment in Springfield.
