Investing Real Estate in Texas!

Hello! I was wondering what you thought of buying single family homes in Texas (specifically Austin), the pros and cons. I live in Arizona but I see a good opportunity for real estate in Texas. Also some tips on buying properties out of state. I personally feel like your much more likely to be successful if you don't limit your market to your hometown.

I was also wondering what some good sources are for finding out vacancy rates. Also how you personally research a good area for investment rental properties without visiting and what you look for when you visit the area for a week. If these questions have been shared before, please reference the discussion.

Thank you!
