[Noob Question] Roofstock Dallas properties good or bad?
Hey real estate experts! I am a young IT professional from SF Bay Area thinking about my first real estate (and out-of-state) investment thanks to the current low rate. I am very interested in DFW and Austin market, as I see they have the potential to become the next Silicon Valley.
My current job requires tremendous commitment and therefore would prefer to have a very passive investment even if it means lower ROI. I researched a couple of turn-key options online and found the one-stop service by Roofstock looks quite interesting.
Curious if anyone could criticize the two Dallas properties posted on Roofstock (links below), such as the location/price/ROI, and/or provide alternative suggestion on passive investment in DFW/Austin area? Thanks!
