There is a large population of young adults here who are not ready to buy yet or prefer to rent over buying a home.

I've been investing in Tampa for over 20 years and manage around 250 properties, so I'm quite familiar with the market.

The sooner this is over the better off you'll be.If you find drug stuff while you're there just have the hauler take it to the dump.

Brand new roof and each unit is good in terms of renovations. water heater from 2017. only concern is HVAC system is 14yr old, that’s the only potential cost that i see that could occur within the next 3-7yr.

If you are missing these resources, again you are competing against "experts" in those markets and they have an advantage over you.I'm in Raleigh, but I invest in Western NC (4 hours from me), coast of NC, (2.5 hours away), CA, and IL. 

A lot of very seasoned investors own homes and properties in the same neighborhoods or communities that they 'collect' over time.

The old saying is "You marry the property, but date the rate" meaning the property can be held a long time but you can refinance over and over.

If you are consistent with learning real estate over the next 4-6 months, you’ll be ready to purchase your first (or next) property in NO TIME!

Would love to catch up sometime over the phone and learn more about your goals! 

I feel i’ve grown a bit fast for myself and now have secured 3 rental properties under my belt in one year - Two being out-of-state and one being my primary residence turned into a rental, which is what brought me to this question: does anyone know any real estate attorneys in Texas that can look over my lease agreement?
