Moving to Plano Area, Looking for Multi-Family to House-Hack

[Trent Ford]

Hi all,

I'm making a move from Houston to Dallas in a few months. Specifically I'll be working in Plano.

I'm looking to find a duplex to house-hack within a reasonable commuting distance (~30 minute drive). Based on a Zillow/Realtor.com search, there doesn't appear to be a ton of multi-family inventory on the market in that area. Thinking it'll be a big help to have a great Realtor on my team to help me find a good property. If anyone has any recommendations of realtors who know multi-family in North Dallas, it would be a big help.

Thanks everyone!

depending where in Plano you will be working at can seriously affect your search area. If you live in East Plano and work in the Legacy/HQ/Communications area - you will drive for 30 (on a good day) and more (depending on time of day/school zones etc).

We were 4 miles from husband's job in Plano and it took 20 minutes to get there. Moved to Frisco and now 8 miles away and it takes 15 minutes and we have 3 route variations we can use without the tollways.
