Come hear from Nichole Vance, the Director of Economic Development for Round Rock.

There are a number of recent and upcoming developments in Round Rock. From the downtown renovations to the new library and of course Kalahari. Nichole will give us insight into these and other updates about the city and it's future vision.

Nichole knows everything that's going to happen in Round Rock before it happens. A major portion of her job is to attract new companies to make their home in Round Rock, so guess who she knows? If you answered "all the companies considering moving to Round Rock" you'd be correct. Come get the scoop on who's moving to Round Rock next!

RSVP here or at the link below and tell your friends!

Bring your questions and your business cards. There will be time for Q&A with Nichole and networking after her presentation.

@Heather Lewis Best of luck to you! There is definitely precedence as others have pointed out. All the communities I own in and have sold to clients have delegation of use for renters. Some are as simple as being on the same form as the general pool liability waiver. I'll PM you an example.

This month Melissa Jones, CEO of MJ Investments Austin will share with us The 5 Truths in Multi-Family Investing. Melissa has been working in multi-family investing as well as operating the properties since 2003. Prior she worked under Dale Walmsley, founder and CEO of Lifestyles Unlimited, a firm that also focuses on multi-family investing. This will be a fantastic opportunity to learn from someone who is a pro!

Thanks @Allan Bishop Jr.! Tim and I have connected and been discussing the types of property he's looking for. I think it's always a good idea to get input from multiple people and BP is the PERFECT place to do that!

Making the numbers work is essential to getting a good deal as Allan said. And there is no one "right number"; everyone's will be different based on their goals, timeline and level of involvement. I love to geek out over analyses and spreadsheets looking at different properties and scenarios. 

With 16 years in the industry and roughly 1000 deals in the books, Melissa Johnson knows what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur. As CEO of Danny Buys Houses, Melissa balances her creative, design side with the practicalities of running the real estate investing company. She was also recently accepted into the Forbes Real Estate Council for 2019. This month, Melissa shares with us how simplifying her processes and systems allowed her business to generate over 7 figures in a year. She’ll be providing a unique perspective on running a successful real estate business investing based on her real-life experiences and actual results.

She also provides her unique perspective as COO and CFO of FreedomDriven LLC, where she helps other real estate investors grow their businesses by providing software, online marketing, and training. Family is key to Melissa's happiness, and she finds true fulfillment in providing others with the same professional freedom she enjoys.

Home Inspections - The neutral third party assessment of a property's condition. Buyers and sellers alike await the report with trepidation. What flaws will the inspector find? How do they know where to look? And what to look for? Is it normal? Can it be fixed?

This month, Michael Scher will pull back the curtain about inspections (and inspectors). He'll share with us what inspectors look for and how they know where to look. Most importantly he'll share insight into how to think like an inspector.

Join us for networking, discussion and support from other area investors. A great way to start 2019!

Michael Scher is the owner and licensed home inspector of Austin Home Inspection Team. Prior to becoming a home inspector in 2005, Michael worked in the high-tech industry testing software. In the early 2000’s, Michael began researching different careers in which he could be self-employed, financially secure, and able to spend more quality time with his growing family. Michael decided a career as a home inspector would be the ideal fit and began training for and earned his Professional Inspector License.

Attention to detail was a critical part of Michael’s skills as a software tester, and he found home inspecting drew on this same strength. Both homeowners and realtors in Austin, TX depend on the friendly, professional, and thorough home inspections provided by Austin Home Inspection Team.

@Eric Gabbard PM sent.

@Eric Lamberton Welcome! And have no fear, if you weren't a little apprehensive starting out, we'd be concerned about you! Preparation and knowledge is key, but then you have to follow it up with applying what you've learned, or it's all just academic. The butterflies are normal.

I heartily recommend attending @Costin I.'s groups that he mentioned earlier. He is extremely knowledgeable about investing in this area and has the experience to address almost any scenario you can conceive. 

I'm in Leander a couple of times a week myself and would be happy to meet up and chat or look over numbers with you as well. DM me and we can find a day and time if you like.

Best!
