., we do have alot of CA people moving over here to Texas. 

Buy 4 more properties - one approximately every 3 months, based on the following logic = always fill existing property with a tenant prior to moving on (I'm new, and this is my way of managing risk); build resources to purchase next property (I have pretty decent purchasing power right now through conventional lending with my current job, and I also have a private lender ready to loan on my next property, and I also get a quarterly commission check that provides a nice financial bump every 3 months); finding a property takes time, but it is worth it to find the right property in the neighborhoods I want to invest in, at the right price.

Looking forward to hear from you. 

Looking forward to connecting with fellow investors!

I leave it with the seller, but move on. 

Will he be moving out prior to closing? 

When they move out, process it like there's no deposit.

On average, 80 people move into Columbus weekly.

Moving forward, I have prioritized diligent property maintenance to safeguard against similar challenges.

I may even move into my little bungalow eventually when I get off the road working (oil and gas industry ) my W2 job.
