An amazing property located at Eagle Mountain Lake! Ideal as a retreat, event venue, bed and breakfast, etc.

Its name is ‘Facade Nord’, built in 1998 by the late Eugene de Bullet, an attorney who passed away in January 2025 at age 81. It was designed after Buchanan Castle, his ancestral home in Stirlingshire, Scotland. It has remained in his family but is now available to the next fortunate future owner…

A castle-style home in northwest Fort Worth is on the market for under $5 million. Situated on the shores of Eagle Mountain Lake, it's a gated estate, clad in stone, with turrets and towers, sitting on 3.09 acres of waterfront land.

Thinking about real estate investing? Who isn’t?

After a few rough-start years being focused on investing primarily in single-family residences (SFR) - to build a smaller but stabilized rental portfolio - we at The Porch Real Estate Investments are now ready to refocus on the benefits of multi-family residence (MFR) investing to expedite building our portfolio and achieving more sustainable wealth. And here’s a quick summary of why MFR investing ‘just plain makes sense’ from the word “GO!”:

Just as we learned playing Monopoly, MFR offers some serious advantages over SFR and here’s why:

💰* Cash Flow Potential: MFR properties naturally generate higher cash flow due to multiple rental streams. This can provide greater financial stability and faster returns.
😅 * Risk Mitigation: Diversification is key! With multiple units, a vacancy in one doesn't cripple your income.
📊 * Operational Efficiency: Managing one MFR is often more efficient than managing several scattered SFRs. This is true even if you’re self-managing your SFRs or using professional Property Management.
📈 * Appreciation Potential: MFR values are often tied to income, which can be strategically improved, leading to higher valuations.
