CIREA is great but we tent to get just as many people and a ton of great energy. rootsrealty.co/events 

The place I have is over 30 years old and a mansion ("mansion" in Japan means an apartment, not "mansion" like a huge house). 

I have several opportunities to snag up a self storage complex and a 18 unit apartment complex on creative financing .

These syndication can provide an 8%+ cash-on-cash return - providing investors monthly cash flow - and a 15-20% IRR over the length of the project.

We feel hesitant to send her another pay stub and a copy of our driver’s licenses.

The 5-10 it gets heavier and a lot busier, and 10-15-20 it really is untenable to self-manage especially if this is not you main business like a person buying their own rentals and building it like a small business. 

The investors that I work with find this much less risky and a much faster way to get to ROI. 

I have a W-2 Job, capital saved up for a down payment (or two), and a buy box based on my affordability.

Hi,Thanks everyone for the input.I just checked back and a 1099 was issued, and we paid the taxes.

It could be a good choice if you prefer more personal space or want flexibility with different rental terms (like longer stays for remote workers).In general, duplexes are more limited in Austin and can appreciate well, while single-family homes give you future flexibility and a wider tenant pool.
