in fact i feel so uneasy about the oil and gas situation here that i have built up over a $6m portfolio in r/e in los angeles instead of houston while renting an apartment in houston...i only recently bought a small house here and a duplex... all in my exposure in terms of real estate is less than 300k out of 6m.i really do wish you all the best and hope you get it sold at a great price and hope that i am dead wrong about this city for my own selfish reasons  but i absolutely dont think the luxury market has legs in this city without some pain first.

Never heard of them.But want to say welcome to BP community, hope all is well.What was my driving force was eating up audio books to speed up the gaining knowledge process, in return I would gather my questions faster for more deeper research.also all podcast/video-blogs from BP, listen to all of them until you start feeling a craving for a certain niche, then focus more on that new found hunger.recommended books:-Rich Dad Poor Dad-Millionaire Real Estate Agent (known as the Red book within REA's)-Millionaire Real Estate Investor (known as the Blue book within REA's)-4 hour work week-The E Myth for Real Estate Investors-Profit First-10x Rule-Ultimate Beginner's Guide to Real Estate Investing (free from BP)Good luck, you seek , you will find#keepthehustle #lifeisworthliving #rethinklife

Thanks @Linval T. for all the great tips on where to find info.

If someone comes to me, I'll send them your way.If you need help in your search or want to verify something don't hesitate to ask.For example: I have clients worldwide and things are just as easy as I e-mail them, talking on the phone.

Roland, Thanks for the tip.

Do you have any tips on how to find successful or JV partners to team up with?  

from a tax perspective are we better off of now, with only 1 property to not do llc and keep reporting of income on our personal taxes in the schedule e?

Please feel free to contact me here or my direct e mail and we can talk about doing some dealsThank youChris
