@Frank Cole When I was still doing single family rentals in Dallas area, generally the rule of thumb i was given by GC's and other investors was $10-15/sq ft plus the major items like you mentioned. I found $12/sq ft was pretty decent for the ballpark for rental. I don't know if that's still relevant number since it's been a couple years but that was helpful for me.

@Chase Gochnauer Some great suggestions here. Think Multifamily is another group focused on multifamily education. There's a weekend training event Jan 27-28 in Dallas and others throughout the year. Full Disclosure, I'm a member and love the founders, Mark and Tamiel Kenney.

Hi Stephanie,
Definitely start educating yourself via whatever method you find you best learn (books, podcasts, etc). Personally I like podcasts and there are a lot of great ones including Biggerpockets, Jason Hartman's Creating Wealth, Investing in RE w/ Clayton Morris, and The Real Estate Guys to name a few.
Good luck!
