Thoughts on Casa View area?

[Keith Chan]

I've been seeing a lot of new listings for recently renovated SFHs in the $180k-$250k range in the Casa View area. I am not familiar with the area, are there some new developments happening over there? What are people's thoughts on that area for investment purposes? 

I am looking for a SFH to purchase in the $200k range to live in for a year or two which I can then turn into an investment property if I decide to move. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks!

Great area....I think the focus there is that there are a lot of homes in the zone....that means right price, need rehab, area close to some demand drivers...like downtown Dallas.   Some flips probably make sense.   Not really any new construction I know about around there.  Maybe a new house here and there on a vacant lot, but new house prices probably don't make a lot of sense in the area.
