I see an opportunity for wholesalers, as many investors are more interested than ever in having strong off-market deals presented to them.Over the past few days, I have been rethinking my investment strategy, as I am pessimistic that I will be able to reach my real estate goals in this current market.  

I applied those strategy off MLS and closed 4 houses in 2016 in the area.

I'd be happy to meet with you to just network or to talk about possible investment strategies. 

I watch a lot of webinars and always here Brandon turner talk about how he loves house hacking / BRRR strategy but I haven't heard him mention this info.

more than likely your strategy will not work the hard money lender will want first position and a conventional lender will not want a second

That being said, I would love to hear what your mortgage and payment strategy would be.

I have a solid rental portfolio of houses here in Austin, but the cashflow is minimal compared to what I can get in multi-family or in the mid west. additionally, I'm looking at purchasing non-performing notes and turning any of the foreclosed properties into rentals.Are there any strategies for selling off the houses, either in bulk or individually, to minimize the tax burden for when I reuse that capital to purchase non-performing notes?

Great thought to research I have heard investors making great returns with that strategy.  

These are each somewhat advanced strategies that i recommend working with another investor who can walk you through these processes if you are not already proficient with them.

I feel like $1000/mo in this area may even be low.I'm aware that no strategy can be perfect.
