New to RE investing in Austin

[Chad Spain]

Hi all, my wife and I just moved back to the US after a long stint overseas, landing in Austin TX. I'll be working somewhat quickly to build a network and do a deal or three this year: contractors, lenders, realtors, etc.

Not sure my strategy yet, but thinking of SF, rehab, and hold; perhaps BRRRR.

Would love to meet some folks near me doing this, feel free to reach out.
