What my partner and I were thinking was, "We've done well in this industry before, and want to tackle a bigger project.

@Account Closed you haven't shared why you're looking to network.If you're hoping to network with agens & PMCs to have them feed you offmarket properties and other types of "deals", you're just one-of-a-million to them.We get inquires almost every day from OOS investors looking to invest in Detroit.For FREE these investors expect us to:- Drop everything else we're doing and focus on what they want- Spend hours on the phone with them TEACHING them how to invest- Spend hours finding deals for them- At this stage, many NEVER want to make an offer, just want to see better deals or they just disappear- Find lenders for them- and on and on and onSo, right or wrong, it's no wonder many in the industry ignore communications from investors.Recommend you network in person and be respectful of their time.

Focused on primarily 7 companies around one industry.  

Houston's competitive environment may require quick decision-making, and ongoing supply adjustments could lead to softer rent growth or concessions in some submarkets.

The ideal home price for you will depend on: 1) downpayment size 2) risk appetite, 3) preference for more cash flow or appreciation.Given our price points, our investors need to have 35-45K to start, on average.The typical cash-on-cash return on our properties net of loan payments, insurance, taxes, and property management fees is 6-8%.Ultimately, you can obtain financing from any lender, although we have partner lenders that can provide very competitive rates.

Finding the right person for the job ensures that they can leverage their unique strengths to outdo the competition and maximize our investment opportunities.By aligning incentives and playing matchmaker with our team, we've created a tight-knit crew of high-fliers.

The list highlights the state's expanding global influence due to strong economic growth, corporate presence, and business investment.Austin ranked No. 87, supported by its booming tech industry, nationally recognized cultural scene and youthful workforce.

The market is extremely competitive now, and properties that were once easy wins are no longer guaranteed to perform.

There are more and more lenders that claim to support fast closes, offer competitive rates and terms only to change things to support a close or take far longer than expected which results in lost deals. 

It's a fantastic way to maximize leverage and move quickly.Seller financing is another one I've had success with, especially when the seller is more focused on a steady cash flow than a lump sum.To add a few more to the list, I've also seen local investors:Use a HELOC for the down payment on a hard money loan to get to 100% LTV.Structure joint ventures (JVs) where one partner brings the cash (often from a SDIRA) and the other finds and manages the deal.Cross-collateralize other properties to secure the new purchase with less (or no) cash down.Especially with how competitive things have been around DFW, creativity on the financing side is what makes all the difference.
