@Brian Adams @Joe Scaparra   All very good info. I have a number of colleagues with properties in this area and they have had great success. It will be interesting to see how the area will progress over the next 5-10 years. My primary residence is in Austin so I am thinking that investing in a place like Killeen may be a decent way to diversify in the near future.          @Idan Zur If I make it up to Killeen soon I will be sure to shoot you a message and we can meet up! 

@Idan Zur thanks for the info! What percentage of your 127 units are SFR, Duplex, Multi's? Which investments have turned out the best for you thus far in Killeen? Also, in terms of entering the Killeen market, what type of financing would you suggest for an investor just starting out?

@Joe Funari thanks for your input! I have been doing research on the area and I believe it would be a great place to invest in more "affordable" real estate (compared to the rest of central Texas). I wanted to start this thread to get more opinions on SFR vs. Multifamily in the area and hopefully hear more from investors about their experiences around Killeen!

Would you invest in Killeen, TX? Why or why not? If so, what type of property would you purchase?

@Bryan Sikes @Joe Scaparra I am a new investor in Austin as well. I would like to connect with you guys and pick your brain about all things real estate! I am Looking to invest in Duplexes/Triplexes/Fourplexes in the area for my next investment and would really benefit from your experience. Would love to buy you both coffee if you ever have the time. 

@Matthew Teifke please add me to this list, would love to come grab a beer and chat. Cheers.

I have lived and rented in Austin for the past year. I am ready to buy, but I am trying to decide between living in a townhome/condo setting closer to downtown or a single family home a little further out. 2+BR, 2+BA, $175k-$205k. I plan to live in the property with a roommate and fully rent out the property after 1-2 years. Thoughts?
