Hi @Denterrius Leverson. The Little Rock area has a lot of great investment opportunities. I have several real estate investment clients who live in the Dallas area and own properties in central Arkansas.
Have you looked into the Arkansas State Commissioner's tax deed sale? The one for Pulaski County is scheduled for April 9th. Last year, more than 600 parcels were up for bid.
You can get the details here: http://www.cosl.org/catalog.aspx
Or, just Google "Arkansas Tax Deed Sale."

Welcome to BP @Denterrius Leverson! Arkansas is a great place to invest and so is your future new home state of Texas. I MF properties in both states. There are a ton of resources here on BP and within the specific topic forums that interest you. Good luck in your investing journey and please reach out if I can help.

Denterrius, when you are ready to open your real estate business in Dallas, contact the Lonergan Law Firm, PLLC, and title closing office. This forum doesn't allow phone numbers to be posted so just look up http://www.LonerganLaw.com for our contact info. We specialize in serving the legal and title closing needs of real estate investors. Ask for my assistant, Moe, and tell her you would like to know about NOWREE meetings and Landlord Investor Network meetings to help you get started with your business in Dallas.
