Mid Term Rental help in DFW
Hello everyone,
My name is Leslie from Plano, TX and I am new to investing. My ultimate goal is to buy and hold but with the higher interest rates I am trying my hand at flipping since its difficult to cashflow with a long term rental.
I am about to complete my first flip project and wanted to weigh my options between selling or keeping as a mid term rental.
1) I am curious how the market is fairing particularly in Garland Texas. Is the market saturated? Difficulty filling vacancies? etc.
2) Also, I could really use some hand holding if I decide to rent mid term. Are there any services that offer help with the initial setup and listing of a property? I have read books, joined forums and probably know all I need to about mid term rentals. But I prefer the guidance of someone with experience.
Thanks in advance for any guidance provided.

The inspections are a mild inconvenience. It depends on the guy you get, but typically not a big deal. I did get a complete nutjob once though that nearly made me lose my mind. Said I wasn't allowed to have a glass window in my old back door. so I covered it in cabinet grade plywood and trimmed it out to make it look as good as possible. Then he told me that I needed a peephole because you could no longer see out if it.
wanted to yell at the guy so bad but you know, my life was in his stupid... stupid hands at that point.
