I have contacted some brokers in the areas but in process of doing more research. Forclosure rate is very high in TX. New homes are pretty cheap(comparing in So CA) so I don’t know how much impact to rental market. Property tax are higher 3%.
Hi
Has anyone bought SFR or duplexes in Texas from out of state. I am wondering how the rental market is in suburban south west of Dallas area?
Is there any message board for Texas out there.
Thanks

The entire DFW area rental market is soft. You can buy reasonable priced properties that will cash flow, if, I say IF you can keep them rented. Vacancies will tear you up.
The suburban south west of Dallas area? That area has the best bargains because it has the highest foreclosure rate. But also the highest rental vacancy rate.
