I also invest in Johnson County. I'm keeping an eye on the areas near Greenville and Balch Springs as well. I'd agree that there are many older homes, expect lower rents, and aside from a few pockets there is less short-term demand. You're welcome to see what my partner and I are doing, and I do get wholesales there on occasion.

I think it would be worth it. The DFW area has remained steady.

Welcome! I run a meetup in Addison that you can find under the network tab. We have a lot of new investors in the group. I’m also an open book with my own investments, so you’re free to do a walk around with me anytime.

Drew is very knowledgeable. My properties there are handled by @David Poole with Alexander’s management. I’d HIGHLY encourage you to connect with me, as there are some very shady “turnkey” operations trying their hand at Detroit. I may be able to save you a serious disaster.

@Serena Du I've worked with worse in the area. I have a few Pier and beam contacts that could get you a quote as part of your option period.

Quote from @Jevon Shaw:

In particular, I like North Fort Worth a lot around the Summerfield neighborhood and Alliance. It's generally a nice B+ to A class long-term investment area.

Let me know if you see anything off market in that area. I’m looking from that point (I live there now) up to Roanoke. I want to do another live in flip.

If you want to keep house, file bankruptcy

The tax lien will be auctioned in 2 weeks, If it's not paid. 
Bankruptcy is not the solution.

 Speak to a BK attorney but Bankrupty should protect the property from being foreclosed on, even a county cannot overstep bankruptcy laws. Now whether or not you wish to file is up to you, you asked the question we gave you a solution. We are a lender and have seen this 1000 times with borrowers (and have no issues with it either). 


 
The property is not being foreclosed on, the tax lien is going to be auctioned.


 you clearly do not want help in this matter. good luck

I will contact a BK attorney. Thanks.

Hi Dele. I’m sorry that you are going through this. I’m in the DFW area and have a few options. I already messaged you.
