@Bruce Lee   Techonology is mostly centered around Richardson, Plano, Frisco.....but there is some spreadout over the Metroplex.TI is based in Richardson near 635/75 for example.What we call telecom corridor is around Richardson....more or less 75 between Spring Valley and George Bush tollway.Just depends on what tech you are thinking of....some data centers south of the city...some west.Dell in Plano, Sabre in Southlake, Real Page in Plano, Accenture...everywhere, Goldman Sachs probably in downtown Dallas, ubertech in Deep Ellum, Microsoft in Irving, ATT in downtown Dallas, Solera in Southlake, Mercado Labs in downtown Dallas, you've also got big tech contingents at Capitol One, JP Morgan Chase, Deloitte, Palo Alto Networks, etc.Lots of people think of Silicon Alley, Seattle, and Austin as tech centers of the universe, but Dallas is strong....TI was probably one of the first IC chip companies is based here and EDS was started here, sold to GM, reinvented as Perot Systems, sold again....to Dell....but still have strong presence here.

And owned a triplex in chip fls.... love multi's... have you studied Dave Lindahl?

As our down payment savings account piles up, I keep getting out of state partnership investment opportunities that chip away at my savings but have allowed me to grow some equity.

FHA is very picky: chipping paint can hold up an appraisal.

I'd also do 45% blue chip stocks from the "Dividend Aristocrats" list, and 5% cash ... live off the interest and dividend income so you never need to liquidate any assets ever unless you choose to.

Intel is a great example, who is building the largest chip manufacturing plant in the US right here, and it will be a $20 billion dollar investment that brings a few new thousand jobs.https://www.dispatch.com/story/business/2022/01/21/intel-ohio-building-computer-chip-factories-licking-county-jersey-township/9173472002/ Here are a few more recent investments https://www.10tv.com/article/money/business/hydrogen-power-company-hyperion-bringing-700-jobs-to-columbus/530-25907aab-5517-4661-a9f3-d2ed2d5be6b0 https://news.wosu.org/news/2022-02-08/rumpke-to-build-50-million-recycling-facility-in-columbus

Hey Chip!

The appraiser called out some chipped paint and fixing the water heater straps.

Bring paint chips in and lay them on the floor the right colors will stand out.  

I've been chipping away at this list myself.
