Cedar Park is more expensive but much better. Leander would be second but at that point why even be around Austin?

Hutto is also starting to grow fast recently but I can’t figure out why. Perhaps consider that as well

Decent area — I like the old-school downtown area. Large Georgetown is nice too for walking around.

Schools aren’t very good though.

Future growth prospects are not as great as Leander/Liberty Hill and areas more “west” — a lot of the job development is happening there.

I purchased in Leander and love it. We considered Georgetown, but friends who live there pretty much talked us out of it. There’s a lot of housing being built which is a plus, but it’s far enough from downtown where it’s not easy to make the trip. And traffic on the 183 toll road from Leander is much better than 35.

Advice and tips for a first time rental property investor?

I am 24 saving up for my first property to purchase at the end of 2021 / early 2022 in the Long Island, NY area.

I’d like to save up around $50K in my HYSA for a property <$400K in LI. Does this sound reasonable?

Does anyone have any advice on investing in the LI area (best location, SFH v MFH) or just general first time rental property buying advice?

Thanks all
