There are more highly sought after areas of the DFW Metroplex, but those areas are either close in urban areas or A++ school districts. 

Even around the university district we have clients east of fourth and up near hudson which would be considered not the most desirable place to own investment real estate.

But the fact is that Simply bringing an *enter ethnic group here* into a district where same tend to live, WITHOUT that party's EXPLICIT request, is "steering", highly illegal, and you can lose not just your license, but your empire.

@Gareth Jackson You need to be careful generalizing about Atlanta zip codes.  30318 has million dollar homes in top school districts as well as some of the most impoverished neighborhoods in Atlanta.

@Diana TianIf you are comparing the average house price between Union City and Weehauken, Weehauken commands a higher price for the reasons that you mention: Better school district, most of Weehauken front the Hudson river with some new developments with great amenities and expensive properties with stunning views of the NYC.

For the Cleveland market, I am now very bullish on North Collinwood... especially northeast of the Waterloo district.

Units that used to rent for $1,100/mo in the Central Business District just 3-4 years ago are now fetching upwards of $1,750-$1,900/mo. 

Churchhill Downs is calling itself the entertainment district.
