DFW Market: Buy & Hold Single Family Properties

In looking to begin my buy & hold investment portfolio locally in the Dallas/ Fort Worth Market, I've narrowed in on several townships west of Dallas to look for distressed, single-family properties: Hurst, Euless, Bedford, Arlington, and Burleson

Ideally, looking to find investments with a 10%+ cash on cash return. With this in mind, Does anyone have additional recommendations of towns to take a look at in DFW?

@Matt Heidenfelder

Hey Matt, I live in Arlington and did a flip in Dallas and am in escrow on my current flip I did in Bedford. I would personally disagree with buying in Frisco or plano those are very expensive markets. I'm no expert. I moved here from Cali 2 years ago looking at Arlington 2 years ago there were dozens of houses under 100k plenty 60k 70k 3/2 to choose from now look at it the cheapest 3/2 is 130k at least! I even put an offer on the last 80k property I saw here in June, got out bid and that house was flipped for 170k. Even my neighbors house was for sale for 78k a year ago I put the Arv at 140 someone flipped it in a month listed for 160 got too many offers pulled the listing and ended up getting 178k 3 DOM. I think you're right on with HEB ( my flip sold 300k 2 DOM) Arlington grand prarie are great appreciation...and south Dallas if you're feeling ballsy !

PM me and we can sit down if you want .
