Dallas Ft Worth First Rental Property

[Peter Weldon]

For the past few years I have been payed down my condo aggressively waiting for the right time to expand. I understand the DFW area isn't getting hit as hard as others in the current environment, but I am ready to start building my portfolio. I have been doing my research, becoming handy in fixing my own place, and reading as much as I can. 

I may be a well educated rookie, but I'm aware I'm a rookie. 

Does anybody have advice on getting started in the area? 

What are some of the area specific issues that you have ran into?
