Are the numbers supportive of your plan to increase rents by 15%?

The goal is to share our experiences, learn from my mistakes,(which I made a few, Smile), things we can do better and how we can support each other, share our intangible resources.  

Both Dallas and Austin are touted for appreciation more than cash flow (I've read that it can be downright difficult to get Austin and Dallas proper to cash flow due to the property values there), but if you look in the suburbs you might be able to find something that can work for you if you find a good network of support.

No investor is going to risk their skin unless you know the deal inside out, upside down, and backwards.

Thank you all for the comments and support.

I have the property's at about  50% of market value(10 comps to support this).

I have a bankruptcy that i'm almost 2 years out from and I'm told i'm not eligible for a HELOC for 5-7 years from discharge and a refinance not eligible until at the 2 year mark in October.I'm just wondering if this is an option or if anyone has seen or done this in the past.Question: After i find a deal and look into finding a private money lender, since I have no "skin in the game" as it would be my first deal and have very little capital, would a private lender be open to financing 100% of the purchase and rehab cost and accepting a lien on my house with the equity I've built up?

The tenancy was supported by Section 8 at about 50%, then went to 100% starting in October 2019. 

There was a lot of support they just want law enforcement on board.

I am not a masonry expert or engineer, just a carpenter that knows doors and windows need a proper opening and the weight of a building needs to be supported.
