I have been told that you cannot do this business unless your spouse is on board, but here I am with well over 20 years in investing and over 30 units and still doing it. 

I live In the Austin area as well. 

Though it might be naive, I was thinking of a buy and renovate project that would cost between 150k and 200K.Any recommendations and/or resources towards this goal would be greatly appreciated.Hi Damion I have a long time friend that has been doing fix and flips in Philly for the last decade..he’s certainly done very well for himself. 

I am currently in my early 20's, have a well paying W2, and would like to begin investing immediately.

I will Airbnb this property as well bringing my total number of Airbnb's to 5!

When I was in Charlotte in April, saw many cranes there as well.

I'm from SoCal so well aware of the pitfalls of being a landlord there, and I have a friend right now going through a horror show that you would not believe.

Well answer it depends.

Hope all is well, I am looking to Take a Job in a different City And Looking At Housing an Came Across a Home that is for sale.

But that's really not my cup of tea... well, maybe instagram but probably more of a marketing instead of documenting) , and third I want to share this with the biggerpocket community!
