Old East Dallas for Vacation Rental Worth Investing

[Gaurav Mehta]

Hi,

Looking to buy a multi-family property in Old East Dallas. Goal is to do Vacation Rental. I have done the numbers and they seem positive. Some questions

1. How is the area in general in terms of crime. I checked the crime rate https://www.areavibes.com/dallas-tx/northeast+dall... Overall the crime rate seems lower than Dallas but is higher than national average. Statistics however are just statistics so want to hear from people who are aware of the area. How is the area in general. Is it safe to do vacation rental like AirBnB there?

2. Anyone who has done vacation rental in Old East Dallas, can you provide some details on what challenges you faced trying to setup a Vacation Rental property in Old East Dallas
