we are budgeting flat rent for next 2 years.

You're going to need a decent paying w2 job to get pre-approved for a mortgage. start budgeting and saving as much money as you possibly can.

It’s low budget home.

Get rid of debt, build a budget, and save.

Need to increase both maintenance and CapEx budgets to be accurate2.

Hello all professional, please need some advice, my name is yakir and i am very small investor i have only 3 condos that I bought 2 in Houston and 1 in Atlanta georgia, and I only buy those because of one friend that offer me to buy, and I never have any experience with investment like that, right now all condos are occupied, and I really want to keep invest and buy more realstate - i believe on this product, the problem is that I am now moved to Italy for my wife studies and I still manage my property in Houston and Atlanta, and I have a new goal to buy one more single family house, and I dont really know what area to look for deals or what cartieria if I am outside the country, and I want to build my own portfolio in Houston tx area to make all close each other, I can get from local bank here a loan but only for 5 years of 70k usd and I can put my own down payment of 60k usd so all my investment budget is 130k is plus 8000 closing cost,So please advice me how to find my next deal,some told me to look for wholesaler in Houston area and some told me to loo all deals base on my budget, so I kind off getting confused how to start by my self.

There should be value added to the property, this should reduce vacancy, BUT do the upfront costs and maintenance $'s added to my CapEx budget negate the added value?

Aside from that, for investing purposes, look at areas with generally lower property taxes as they can eat into your budget.

I’m looking for budget friendly ideas on how to heat & cool basement in a rental I have , the basement is finished with a room, bathroom , laundry room & living area .

Eventually, once it's in the budget, I'd recommend LandVision for pulling comps yourself.
