Quote from @Adrian Vann:
Picking this one back up: Dallas has restricted most short term rentals except for in certain areas as of this past summer. City of Dallas Short-Term Rentals code How is that impacting MTR in Dallas? Are you finding MTR to be increasingly competitive?
I have a 3/2.5 in Old Lake Highlands near White Rock Lake (~1 mile) that my family and I are living in as a primary residence, but I have been thinking about house hacking into another house and then doing a MTR on this 3/2.5. The house is valued at $745k or so, and we have about $300K equity in the home. I'm trying to figure out if I can get the consistency in MTR for the price I need to cover the mortgage. Doing a LTR would likely be a negative cash flow. I'd like to keep the house for long-term appreciation since it's in a good school district and has low crime. Would welcome anyone's thoughts!
@Adrian Vann why do you think the cashflow would be negative for an LTR in that neighborhood? I'm just north of the lake, thinking of doing the same, have about the same equity, and my estimates ($3500/mo) seem to cashflow a couple hundred a month. Only 2.14% CoC return though 😞
