We're home to 4 military installations (Lackland, Randolph, Fort Sam Houston, Camp Bullis), which provides a steady supply of quality, recession-resistant renters.There are also many investors that have found success with STRs in San Antonio as a result of the steady tourism. 

Most quality PMCs will not manage these properties as they understand most owners won’t pay them enough for the time required and even then it’s too difficult successfully manage them.

As Tony Robbins would say, “The quality of your questions determines the quality of your life." 

This point of view is of course from purely an mathematical investment standpoint there are however other indirect factors that are hard to put on paper as well, the walls may help you rent the units faster (less vacancy = + cashflow), they may help you show the units better (better quality Tenant = less headaches, less turnover  = more cashflow), they may also add to your ongoing costs since panels do last longer whereas drywall tends to get 'holes' punched in it every now and then.

Granite isn’t that expensive if the pattern / look doesn’t need to be flip grade quality.

Almost nobody knows the comps for their cell service, their car insurance, or their health care insurance.2) make sure they are on MTM or when their lease expires, until there’s nothing you can do. 3) find out the local/state requirement for notice to increase rent, maybe go even farther out to avoid a winter vacancy  4) be financially prepared for the tenant to move out and spending thousands to make it ready for the next tenant while it’s vacant for a month or two (especially in the middle of the winter.)5) be absolutely confident that you’re right about market ent so you don’t spend thousands lose rent to vacancy and possibly get a lower quality tenant to make an extra couple hundred per month.
