Also like you, I live in a huge horse area (Ocala, FLorida).

The refusal to invest in myself and my family's future was one of the biggest mistakes I have made in my life and the reason I was trapped in the rat race for so long.

., you shoulda seen the bargains there LAST year...In many markets, the cash-flowing-rentals horse HAS bolted.

At present I am searching for another rental property to add to our portfolio - slow and steady wins the race!

In this rat race I am not getting ahead.

I would agree with @Neil Narayan that Round Rock probably has more interest with regard to rentals than Cedar Park, but it is a close race there and that is purely from my experience.  

Granted, these returns only work on the lower end "work horses" and not the Edmond "show horses". 

All that said,  SP also has a great, active, engaged community,  several festivals over the course of the year  (its the only neighborhood I've seen people in full tradiitional dress riding horses down side streets for fiestas patrias for example) and neighbors put on an all-out august night out against crime every year.   

I feel like the first group races to the new listings hoping they can catch landlords who aren't paying attention or screening well....in Cleveland, I'd say I average at least 40 inquiries before I get a rental agreement signed (the last house was over 60).

We live below our means and im leaning toward becoming a landlord, might get me out of the rat race earlier.
