The more evidence you have, the stronger your case will be.Communicate with the Tenant:Approach the tenant in a calm and professional manner.

The reasoning is if the person is sued for something unrelated to the property, there is a much stronger argument that Nevada's superior charging orders must apply.

Look into what's up now in the Houston market, eyeing things like property prices, how many properties are for sale, how much people want them, and what the economy might do next.

Most of our tenants stay between 9 months and 2.5 years.We could tighten up our criteria and maybe get a longer tenancy (we are part missional in this, trying to help those with fewer housing options), but some of it is driven by the poor economy here.  

I like to use local lenders because they will know the rental market and local agents will know the lender can get the financing done making your offer slightly stronger over using a national lender. 

Real estate is the long game, if you invest in 3-5 years besides the last 5-7 years you typically will not have significant equity gains, but when the govt pumps 6T into the economy that is why pricing went up and people made money, not because people became savvy investors.

@Samuel Olivas Save more $$$ and get into a stronger buying position.

Syndications are only suitable to players who have experience with deep due diligence, basic understanding of fraud prevention/detection techniques and enough real estate experience to understand the market, macro economy and how those factors will impact the investment. 

There are definitely stronger appreciation markets in the multifamily space and there are some that the market is dropping.

You are all set to begin your search.I work with a lot of out-of-state investors that like investing in Columbus because it is an investor-friendly state and properties have good cash flow and stronger appreciation.
