Keep investing a moving forward!

Hi Everyone, I'm trying to get some info on recording a second position lien/mortgage on an investment property in Texas.

We manage SFR's not apartments so a lot of renters often think it's going to be re-painted every single new lease start which just doesn't happen.

As mentioned in the title, I have $250,000 to invest.

I'm looking to purchase 10-15 new-build single family homes (250k-$300k range) as long term holds.

My goal is to invest in a multifamily property to live in/airbnb.

Tenants should be paying for anything they did that required repairs during the tenancy (eg they caused the toilet to back up, they pay for the plumber).I don't know what software to recommend, but you can do a lot of it in excel in a single file, just use different worksheets for each property within that one file.

Columbus has a lot of transitional neighborhoods, so it's also important that your PM works in the neighborhoods you are investing in.

I wanted to ask the the group if anyone has used alternate means of raising capital, strictly to buy another piece of investment property.I am new to the group and looking forward to any dialogue.
