Dallas or South Florida - Which is a better market?

[Adam Wesley Abrams]

Within the next year I am planning on leaving Los Angeles and moving to either Dallas, Tx or South Florida to begin my real estate journey. Does anyone have recommendations for which might be a better house hacking and buy/hold market? Multi-family properties seem much cheaper in the Dallas area but South Florida has so many affordable condos. Just not sure if the HOA in South Florida will kill cash flow. Please advise, thanks!
