In my opinion the real estate remain still a good investment/business because has the "SLOW" characteristic that means that do not react directly proportionally with the stock market and no matter is going to happen the people needs a roof...Anyway, about the Houston market, I was just reading from the Houston Business Journal that the top 10 jobs are based on medical and/or import/export industries, no one was in the oil & gas area.Another KPI is that Houston have still a shortage of houses respect to the request.However, if you driving around downtown/uptown you can see a lot of new buildings/condo/town etc... that are ready to open...In conclusion, I think there are a lot of opportunities in the Clutch city...

Stinky part about our state is we are just a few towns over from you guys, a measly 6 hour drive...

Stop speculating, nail down your criteria, stick to your criteria, and only buy at DEEP discounts from MOTIVATED sellers.Good luck.

I don't want to diminish the idea of keeping ourselves safe, but if you look at how many showings there are across the country compared to the number of incidents like this I'd say you're probably more likely to be injured or killed on the drive to the showing.

Another reason to go MF is I only have to drive to one location as opposed to all around town.

I know in some communities, "schools" may be a driving factor  and the supply and demand of property values will go up.

The purpose of the bill is to allow Cities to find someone with deep pockets to pay delinquent or unpaid water, trash, and sewer bills.

I guess to avert analysis paralysis, I'm looking to dive deeper into the flip side of things and get a deep understanding into the day to day operations on the business end.

Also, drive the area where you want to invest, and look for three family units.  

Feel free to reach out and we can coordinate a time during your visit for a driving tour of the city.
