This makes it more appealing to me especially since I want to become a buy and hold investor.

At the same time, these tenants wanted a no effort type place and that is one of the reasons it appealed to them.

Hello all.Thanks for letting me be a small part of this great Bigger pockets community.My wife (who is also a new BP member) and I have been investing in Dallas real estate since June of 2013.So far we have gone slowly mainly by house hacking in Dallas neighborhoods that typically appeal to young professionals.Since June of '13 we have done 4 deals:1)Bought (Jun'13 and then later sold Jun'15) a duplex that we lived in.  2)Bought (Aug'14) a 3/3 single family house that we lived in and now have as a rental.3)Bought (Nov'15) a FSBO 4/3 SFH (zoned MF) house.

If taxes are that high on a house that can only rent a 2br for $1400 a month, that property needs a tax appeal immediately!
