Search BP for house hacking. 

Hello everyone,I am new to the tenant search process, I was curious what forum people are using to find reliable tenants?

Now, Online can do a lot of things.   

You can have a realtor run a search of recently rented properties and you can go through the pictures and description and get a pretty good idea of what you should have to be competitive.

After you get that info from them ask them for a referral for a real estate agent to help you search for/buy a property AND USE THAT AGENT!

There is a book called “Mans search for meaning”, I suggest you read it.

I'd dig deep and search for your goals in RE and then see if the investment matches your goal.

All three had positive net migration numbers (Houston had negative net migration because of the hurricane/flooding in 2017).Lastly, a lot are saying that Houston markets are already over saturated with investors,  the property prices are too high,  etc.Since I am trying to narrow my market search in investing in a 2-4 unit property would you guys agree that I should eliminate the Houston markets above and focus on Norman OK, Winter Garden Fl, and Boerne TX?

Avoid internet searches, as tenants often get on there and leave scathing reviews -- sometimes reasonably, but sometimes not.
