I am just finishing up a major remodel project with an owner/investor in Northwest Austin, a listing that is expected to go on the market on March 1st, 2010. Check back in a few days and photos will be up, as well as some other tasty tidbits about the project!
Get started today with this fantastic Austin MLS Search. If real estate is listed for sale in Austin and the surrounding areas, you’ll find it on FindRealAustin.com’s Property Search.
Properties to Flip!
It’s not easy to find properties with the characteristics that make a good flip, but it can be done. You need a good agent, a good plan and a good team of skilled tradespeople as well as deep knowledge about where-to-get-what-better-faster-cheaper to get your flip done on time and on budget. You also need cash-in-hand, a good source of financing, and a realistic understanding of the elements that can make-or-break the investment potential for this type of real estate transaction.
Buy, Fix, Rent
Have you considered buying a duplex, living in one side while fixing up the other? If you have some decent DIY (Do it Yourself) skills, this might be a way for you to build wealth in real estate. Austin has some very interesting areas with duplexes for sale – some in areas that might looks little iffy now but that are showing signs of investor interest, or where bit-by-bit properties are being bought and updated (which is, of course, a really good sign!).
Up and Coming Areas
Ever wondered how people manage to buy houses in areas that later become hot hot hot? No crystal ball exists for this but with careful research and market analysis, as well as the patience to talk to a LOT of people and read a LOT of opinions, blogs, articles, etc., you can be one of the people that gets in sooner rather than later. And, if you buy a home in an area that you love, and are careful with your updates, you can end up with a pretty nice piece of Austin real estate in your portfolio. Hot doesn’t happen overnight, but the signs are everywhere, waiting for someone to read them and make sense of the whole set.
