@Darius Kellar I agree that one must FIRST focus on creating income and THEN invest.

Potential seller asks for drivers license in exchange for lock box code to visit property she says she doesn’t t want traffic in and out .

If you are a New Zealand company marketing US property in New Zealand then you must be a licensed agent.

From the time of CLOSING on the relinquished property, the investor has 45 days to nominate potential replacement properties and a total of 180 days from closing to acquire the replacement property.Identification requirements: The investor must identify the replacement property prior to midnight on the 45th day.

It must work for him as he's able to rent them for me at market rate and then turn around and make his profit. 

And since rent increases ultimately must come from inflation adjusted income increases, bodes well there too.Never been to Texas, that's just random 'big data' data point from an internet stranger.

Yes, that’s what it must be.

Also I don't like Text messaging.. and they must and I mean MUST answer their phone and use DocuSign. no DocuSign no deal from me.
