Also, are there any recommendations for investor friendly Real Estate Agents, Lenders, and Property Managers in the San Antonio areas?

Does the seller need to know of the true buyer of the house and if so how do they not find out about me bumping up the price?

Educate yourself on the local market, network with other investors and agents, and always have a solid plan in place before making any investments.

It cost me $1200, the lawyer acts as our registered agent (if we get served, it goes to him) and it is coordinated with my father's Trust so we are covered when he passes. 

Hmmm, guess you didn't notice that @Michael Plaks is an "Enrolled Agent".There are hot dog vendors, there are fast food cooks, there are sit down resaurant cooks and there are fine dining chefs. 

What areas have you found to be successful in building a buyers list?

Would like to be added to buyers list or make connections for existing or future deals.

Just starting my journey with REI and looking forward to building my network of other investors, agents and lenders.

5) Consider meeting with a few agents in your area even if you are just getting started!

This amounts to lost opportunity because if you had purchased RE, at the closing it can start producing return. 5) ADUs detract from the existing structure whether this is privacy, a garage, or just yard space. 6) this is related to number 1, but there are many more buyers looking to purchase homes for their family than there are RE investors looking to purchase small unit count properties.
