Dallas a good market for cash flow?
I keep reading all these great thing about Dallas and other major cities in texas being great for investing in buy and hold properties. But whenever I run the numbers it seems like its pretty much at a Rent to value of 1% which doesn't seem like there would be much cash flow. Example a 100k house in Mesquite tx would rent for $1000 a month. Other areas of the country (ie Milwaukee) seem to be getting closer to 2-3% rent to value. Am I not running the numbers correctly or not looking in the right neighborhoods to invest?
