Afternoon, I currently live in Austin, and although I don't have any legal issues, I would like to find someone in the city or nearby who offers affordable help for landlords and real estate investors. 

It’s one of the fastest-growing cities in the Midwest, and with major companies like Meta, Google, Amazon, and Intel expanding in the area, the demand for housing and rentals has stayed consistently strong.

Have you talked the city about this yet or are you waiting until the project is complete to make the request?  

Addison, Allen, Anna, Azle, Batch Springs, Bedford, Benbrook, Burleson, Cedar Hill, Celina, Cleburne, Colleyville, Coppell, Corinth, Crowley, DeSoto, Duncanville, Ennis, Euless, Farmers Branch, Fate, Flower Mound, Forest Hill, Forney, Glenn Heights, Grapevine, Greenville, Haltom City, Highland Village, Hurst, Keller, Lancaster, Little Elm, Mansfield, Midlothian, Mineral Wells, Murphy, North Richland Hills, Prosper, Red Oak, Rockwall, Rowlett, Royse City, Sachse, Saginaw, Seagoville, Southlake, Terrell, The Colony, Trophy Club, University Park, Watauga, Waxahachie, Weatherford, White Settlement, Wylie, Dallas, Fort Worth, Plano, Irving, Garland, Grand Prairie, McKinney, Frisco, Mesquite, Carrollton, Denton, Richardson, Lewisville, or Arlington

I would mention the areas/cities you are looking in and strategy.

Possibly, but not the desirable areas where you can commute easily into the city.  

Quote from @Tricia York: I would really suggest you get an estimate from a licensed contractor to really know what numbers you are at for the C remodel.

@Stephanie Cortez As RE investing gets more complex and cities like Philly are getting tougher, the savvy investors are doing well and buying up opportunities, the newer investors are often stumbling through their first acquisitions and learning the hard way how resilient they are (or are not) and the folks in the middle are hopefully working on getting smarter and more careful about everything - vetting tenants better, being smart about renovations and maintenance, exploring alternate strategies when necessary. 

For example:Finding reliable boots-on-the-ground supportAccurately projecting rehab numbers or rental ratesCoordinating leasing/turnovers long-distanceTrusting contractors/vendorsUnderstanding local landlord requirements or city-specific inspectionsI’m really interested in hearing the real-world pain points (positive or negative) from people who have tried it or are actively doing it.

ADRs are also compressing it seems from the data.Which cities are best to deal with when it comes to STR rules and regulations?
