You should aim for a large single-family with 4+ bedrooms and as many baths as possible.

You have to offer below or find a way to add value.Thats what I have aimed to do, it seems when I make an offer using those numbers I get beat to it!

@Robert SquiresMost (multifamily) syndicators aim for a minimum 15% IRR.

I'd aim for them to be around 1-2 minutes depending on the campaign you are using them for.

.- Assuming I refinanced and bumped up my rents [over 3 years] cashflow would increase to about $5,100 a monthI purchased the building in the hopes of supplementing my 9 - 5 job or better yet replacing it after the loan was paid. 

I'm not sure that 7 doors will be enough to really supplement income.

If you need the cash flow to supplement your income there are some heavier cashflow markets out there think mid west with teams in place.

Supplement 1 & 2 with the ol’ Google.And, not for nothing, but it’s not hard to look at For Rent materials to see how PMs keep up their units for their owners.

Chris,There are a few Apartment Investor Mastery (AIM) meetups in Houston.

I am not aiming for a lottery ticket, the warranty cost per year is only $300 and I can cancel at any time so it's a low risk play for me.
