All but 6 (including the one I'm buying) are owned by two large corporations that rent them out.  

However, since I am new to this I'm looking for a hard money lender that's not associated with one of houstons large corporations.

I just really, really love houses.I found this website while I was searching for ways to get started in real estate and so far I have already learned a lot!!

Also I pull some lists myself too like tax delinquent lists from the counties and I have a few people who drive for dollars for me and I just look them up, find the owner and start sending them mail.I feel my lists are accurate, I get results from them, and update them too.I haven't heard of "sourcelist.com" so I couldn't tell you about that one.All my lists are quickly downloadable to excel and mail merge ready, which is cool.

You would contact someone like me who has a large buyer's list, and who does joint ventures.  

Thats my seller. i do this for about 4 hours a day, and create my list in excel and theres my motivated sellers lists that will be getting one of my yellow letters.im sorry for the typos and grammatical/punctuation errors.

First thing in the morning with my coffee, I check all the potential houses on websites and I list the possibilities.

Rentometer is telling me I'm on the low end of the bell curve but I don't know how much to trust that web site.

Most of that time I was the investments manager in Texas for a large publicly traded REIT, managing the acquisitions and dispositions of SFR homes.

Jim Carson way to go on the lot in Bonita, that's a nice get and is an excellent location to build the home you're describing,I'd love to hear more.
