Hello from Houston!

[Victoria C.]

Hello BP community! I’m new around here and want to introduce myself.

I’m Victoria, and I’m ready to learn all I can about investing in single family LTRs in my north-Houston area. I plan to purchase my first property within the next six months.

I may be new to rental investing, but I am a long-time homeowner with experience doing renos and have done very well buying/selling my own personal homes (non-rental). My superpower is making houses desirable and caring for (maintaining) my properties. Over the years I’ve put together a team of contractors I trust in my area. I’m also experienced at starting businesses and bookkeeping.

My goal is to buy run-down starter homes in A and B neighborhoods within 30 minutes of where I live, then make them safe, sound & beautiful, and rent them out for the long haul. I am more interested in appreciation then cash flow (but don’t want negative cash flow). I truly want this business to be a win/win for myself and for future tenants. Knowing that I’m providing a beneficial product/service to people is important to me. I believe our homes are the foundations of our lives.

What more can I say? I am financially secure and ready to start this business.

I’m going to be asking a ton of questions in the next few months as I prepare to buy my first property, so bear with me please! If anyone wants to reach out to help guide me in this journey, I’d be appreciative.

Cheers,

Victoria
