I was interested in this type of deal because I was living in the area for another year and needed to build equity as well as dip my feet into the real estate market.

You won't find one PM that hits all 3 markets as there is a pretty decent distance between the 3.

I won't be out-marketing anyone. 

Have you had an appraisal done recently, or do you have comps to estimate the property's market value?

Are you looking for guide and advise of an expert on the market or a pass through agen?

I still have a full-time job, but my goal is to start with 1-2 flips/year for the first couple of years, then ramp up to 5+/year.Right now, I’m focused on learning as much as possible—market analysis, deal sourcing, estimating rehab costs, and raising capital.

@Ella Marie, I can't speak on behalf of your market, but in my respective market, competition is tough, and the successful fix-and-flip vendors are often full-time operating businesses.

How will the new administration effect RE market in overall US market. 

I can do financial modeling with you and talk to other new build investors it's a slow growth plan. build directly at 25% below the market and also identify land too. increase unit counts and get better economies of scale. single family homes will never perform like a three story walk up apartment. we build a stacked triplex in Columbus Ohio with a picture below, if you are set on Dallas look at land prices and see if the economics help. 

Purchase price: $85,000 Cash invested: $60,000 My initial strategy for this deal was to flip it and sell it, but the market was unfavorable so I opted for the BRRRR strtategy instead.
