But don’t expect the California style million dollar homes in 10’years. I would suggest to buy 10 year old properties if u are keeping for long term. Fyi its not that close to domain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fyi its not that close to domain Thanks buddy .... I'm not expecting x5 times return on the property. As long as I can rent and have the house pay for itself then I'm fine as it add equity to the property. Regarding access to Domain, I saw it is 16 miles to Domain. I have not seen the roads in Austin. Is it too hectic to travel to Domain? Any comment on the rent buddy? Is it easy to rent properties?
