Build to Rent? Does anyone do this?

[Silvia Ochoa]

DFW housing market is super hot (expensive) as you all know, which makes it very difficult for a newbie like me to get in the game. So it got me thinking, why not build on one of these small lots in South Dallas. Small 1300 sqft house on a small 7000 sqft lot. My thought was to use it as a rental.  I was wondering if anyone has any experience doing this or if it would even be profitable.
