ACTIVE/LOCAL Dallas DFW Investors

[Nicole Johnson]

Hello Everyone! 

I am a new investor with one Miami, FL property that's in a nightmare rehab stage. I recently moved to the Dallas/Fort Worth Area (Las Colinas). I would love to connect with some LOCAL, ACTIVE Investors. 

I am on pace to complete the Texas real estate courses this month and obtain my license next month. I want to join a brokerage that specializes in Investor Friendly Properties with an office full of active investors (if that exists) lol. Any recommendations? New Western? Networth Realty? Smaller, boutique offices?

I am also ready to purchase my first rental property in the DFW area. I have $50k-100k to invest and access to many lending products. Should I wait to get my license and buy in January under my own license or start hunting for deals now? I love buy and hold strategies, such as STR and LTR. Please feel free to share your expertise on location. (Arlington near stadium, hospitals or airports or residential neighborhood areas, such as Frisco and Plano?) I would like the idea of a flip that is suitable for STR or LTR as plan B and C.

I know I'm all over the place (which is normal for me LOL)! Thanks in advance for any advice!

Hi Nicole,

We are an active lender and investor in DFW. Would be happy to be a resource. We could even explore a JV situation combining our expertise on flips/rentals. We really like Fairmount, Arlington Heights, and Ridglea Hills in Fort Worth.

Let me know if it makes sense to connect.
