WHERE IN TEXAS SHOULD I BE LOOKING AT?

Hey everyone! I am looking around Texas for my next BRRRR investment. I am from out of state and trying to educate myself more. Texas is a huge state with a couple of huge cities that a growing extremely fast. My eyes are leaning towards Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, and Houston.

My question today is, which of you have properties in any of those cities and how's your investment doing? 

Which neighborhood are B-C class?

Is one city better than the other? 

Are there other cities in Texas I should be looking at? 

If you have any information with Texas Real Estate, put it down below!! It'll help me a lot!

Texas hands down. All 4 major cities are in the top 35 cities to live in the US. There are 3 major components to buying rental property. Affordability, Job growth and population growth. I prefer Houston TX heres why;

As of 2019 Houston has the #1 market for job creation in the US.

Houston remains on the lower end compared to other major cities with a median home price between $175-223K and Median rent between $995-1500

In the Top 10% for cities with the highest appreciation in the US. depending on what area between 4.42-7.21% (Houston) vs 3.37% (USA)

As of 2018 Houston is #14 for cities with fastest growth and migration from other US cities

As of 2019 Houston is #30 out of 125 cities for best places to live in the US
