Does anyone have some tips on how to tell if an area is good to buy in? I am looking to buy, then rehab, then sell/rent in Dallas area, but I don't know how to tell what are good vs. bad areas? I tried looking at the local elementary schools to see how many of the kids are on free lunch program (idea being that if someone can't afford food for their kid they can't afford a house or rent), but eveywhere in dallas seems to have high numbers for that. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi there-
If you are looking for expert advice on real estate investing in the Metroplex, I know of a great team that specializes in investment real estate. They find the properties for you, provide financing (if necessary), provide assistance with the rehab, and even contribute with an exit strategy that can save you thousands when you resell. The don't charge a fee for transactions as their profit is already built into the transaction. They tipically sell property at 50% to 60% of the after repair value. Give me a call and I'd be happy to give you there information.
