From sleek, modern warehouses to state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, the city's real estate offerings are equipped with every essential amenity.

If that’s the case, I’d recommend considering areas outside of Dallas proper where you can still find properties with strong growth potential.Cities like Prosper, Melissa, Princeton, and Anna are excellent options to explore.

House hacking is an excellent strategy, especially with the potential to use an FHA loan to secure a property with a low down payment. 

In some older neighborhoods especially historic districts, the tenants look for older houses - they preferred the art deco bathroom tiles, the thick plaster & lath walls over granite countertops and stainless steel appliances.but class D neighborhoods are easiest to tell.

It’s more conservative, the city itself is established, older neighborhoods, better city amenities (museums, arts/music etc), more pro sports, more hills, bigger river, has a streetcar, arguably better nightlife overall.

Ultimately it's less of a science than an art, but people rarely truly change so what they did is probably what they'll do.

There is the tactical "act" of underwriting, then there is the much more valuable "art" of underwriting.The act can easily be taught.
