With 30 years of residential construction experience and having built several homes in the past few years, I bring a strong foundation in project execution and quality craftsmanship.Right now, I’m seeking lenders to help me unlock home equity for property acquisitions and to expand my portfolio.

I'd like to share the excel file but I'm having trouble navigating FilePlace to upload it.Appreciation vs. cash flow, I’d prefer a balanced market that offers some appreciation potential.

McKinney is thriving, but so are other parts of North Texas, and a broader perspective could reveal other great opportunities.Here’s what I’ve observed managing a significant number of rentals in the area:Bedrooms and Layouts:3-bed, 2-bath homes consistently attract the largest pool of tenants and have the highest occupancy rates.4-bedroom homes have grown in demand, especially with the rise of remote work, as tenants look for extra space to use as a home office.Square footage is less critical than number of beds and baths.Supply and Demand:McKinney’s growth is driving demand, but the quality of the location matters greatly.

Looking to construct a duplex at a reasonable cost but also quality for long term durability.Thank you!

My partner and I keep an excel spreadsheet of rent, our purchases, utilities, taxes, insurance, and money spent on contractors.

As a result, mid term rentals can do exceptional here and there are quality multi family units in the $250k/door range. 

I'm an experienced project manager with hundreds of cradle-to-grave efforts under my belt, including building project scopes and budgets, evaluating contract proposals, and managing construction to maintain the delivery of high quality products on-time and in budget.Penny is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), serving the community mental health needs of parents, children and families.We both recognize we have an immense opportunity to serve our community and want to capitalize on the blessings we have been provided so that we can continue serving our neighbors.My wife, Penny, and I are looking to transition into commercial multi-family real estate in 2025.

And for an OOS, I always advise to keep things simple at start, don't get greedy, go for quality and consistency, then work on maximizing monetization later. 

Are there specific qualities or terms you look for that make the relationship a good fit for your investment strategy?

Both Lifestyles' and Brad's training was/is excellent.
