Brand new to REI and in the process of just acquiring knowledge before diving in anywhere.Since I live in the SF Bay market craziness, I'm looking into opportunities out of the area.I know Austin has been a hot market recently, and as such may not have much available (in the cash flow sense), but I'll be visiting there next week and curious if it's worth reaching out to a realtor there to take a look around.I figure when I'm ready, I'll probably look to buy-and-hold a single family or multi family that starts with cash flow.

Essentially, a “subject-to” contract is a purchase contract that includes a clause stating that the home sale is dependent on the buyer or seller meeting a certain stipulation.

I would personally just rent to someone that meets my criteria without a cosigner, but some people don't mind allowing a cosigner.

I am sure you will be able to meet people who invest locally and out of state and get a ton of good info from many sources in one weekend.

Ya just say here is my rental criteria, if you don't meet this don't apply because you'll be wasting your app fee and my time. 

I am currently reaching out to property managers and builders and real estate agents in the area to set up meetings to talk about options and related costs.
