Closing on the San Antonio house
I’ve been so busy the last few days I haven’t had time to post anything. We closed on the house in San Antonio today. I’ll go into more detail later, but financing got to be a real pain. An old $400 delinquency from five years ago on the guarantor’s credit report took many, many hours […]

Before I even got to San Antonio I had touched base with an attorney in Texas to discuss my business plans. Being an attorney in Illinois, I know how important it is to get state-specific advice. I’ve formed a few LLCs in Illinois, but I was willing to pay someone in Texas to do it […]

I got to San Antonio in early December from Chicago and immediately set my sights to finding a rental house. I had looked at a lot of listings, but I hadn’t yet spoken with a Realtor. Within about a week I had found a Realtor I wanted to work with, spent an afternoon looking at […]

Okay, I’ve been tied up lately and haven’t had the time to post very much. I’ll try to give updates as I can.
Assuming everything goes well with the Moo House closing, we’ll be looking for another one to four unit building in San Antonio. This one may have to be seller financed though. I have […]
Offer accepted!
After a little back and forth late last week, I’m the new owner of a four unit piece of property. Well, assuming all goes well until the closing. I’m going to go ahead and give some of the details here and assume that the seller isn’t a regular reader.
The seller was asking $135,000. We offered […]
Choosing a house in San Antonio
We checked out the houses on Tuesday with the broker. Online pictures certainly decieve. We checked out four of the ones I listed as well as one other that I had not listed. Out of these, we’ll be making on offer on #4. This was the four unit for $135,000. Is it in great shape? […]
Read More..>>San Antonio will soon be making me money
Things have moved along pretty steadily in the last week since I’ve been in San Antonio. I’ve spoken with an attorney and the LLC filing for my business will be done soon. I’ve got a loan approval and can move forward on a house or two. I’ve also spoken with two brokers and am using […]

I got to San Antonio a few days ago, read the real estate blog at the local newspaper, and found this headline. Considering one of the main reasons for coming down here was to invest, it was a good sign.
It turns out that five of the top ten cities listed are in Texas. […]
